Finally, we got rid of this plague.

Fang Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief. She really didn't want to see this guy. She always felt that her predecessor's death was somehow related to him.

Unfortunately, some of his memories from his previous life were lost, especially his memories before his death, which were completely gone.

After a short while, Zhu Wen and the others chatted for a bit, and upon learning that Madam Fang had something on her mind, he spoke up.

“Since Madam Fang has made up her mind, then I should certainly support her. As for the medicinal herbs, you can go to the shop to choose them. As for the money, you can pay me after you sell them.”

He had actually noticed that Fang Xiaoxiao had her own thoughts, and given what happened last time, it was normal for her to harbor some resentment.

The real reason for inviting him back to manage the shop this time was because of the matter of the Immortal Apricot Blossom Wine.

Fang Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed and smiled.

"Thank you so much, Manager Zhu."

"Don't worry, although I, Fang Xiaoxiao, am running my own business, I will return to the store immediately whenever you need me, ready to serve you!"

"Very well, very well, Madam Fang is indeed a woman of strong character. I, Zhu, will not say anything more. I wish Madam Fang a bright future and a thriving business."

"Wishing you the same..."

Zhu Wen, using the apricot blossom wine as a pretext, chatted merrily with the two men, drinking quite a bit.

When the three were saying goodbye, Zhu Wen specially gave them two jars of apricot blossom wine.

Li Renyi burped, his face slightly flushed, wiped his mouth, and smiled.

"My lady, this wine is truly exquisite. I haven't tasted such fine wine in a long time. I wish we could sell it!"

Although he was the heir of a marquis's family, he had never tasted such fine wine before.

Fang Xiaoxiao turned around and glanced at her husband, who was carrying a bamboo basket on his back.

"Are you telling the truth?"

She had already planned to offer apricot blossom wine at her stall.

Li Renyi patted his chest, indicating that there was absolutely no problem.

The two walked home one after the other.

As soon as Fang Xiaoxiao pushed open the wooden gate to the courtyard, she saw an uninvited guest standing in the yard, circling around Pei Yan.

"Yu Donglei, what are you doing at my house again?"

Yu Donglei didn't even look up.

"Young Master Pei, I was injured by a vicious dog today. Please take a look at me, it hurts so much!"

As she spoke, she bent down and lifted her skirt.

Pei Yan lowered his head and remained silent, then turned to look at the person at the courtyard gate.

Here comes another one!

He glanced at the person behind Fang Xiaoxiao and frowned slightly.

Yu Donglei wanted to say something more, but the man in front of her ignored her.

This infuriated her, and she said angrily.

"Pei Yan, what do you mean? I'm injured, why don't you even look at me properly!"

Pei Yan ignored him and turned to walk towards his room.

Instead, Murong Changqing, who had been watching the show the whole time, came over carrying a bowl of plain noodles.

"Come, Miss Yu, don't be angry. He's just a blockhead. I'll make you some noodles. Quickly try them and see if the saltiness suits your taste."

"Hmph, I won't eat this cheap food. Even a dog would refuse it."

Yu Donglei snorted coldly and said without any mercy.

But Murong Changqing didn't care and continued talking to himself.

"Oh, Miss Yu really knows how to be sarcastic. But if even a dog would despise her, then so be it."

"Just like Miss Yu, who dislikes my plain noodles."

He chuckled and, carrying the noodles, walked towards his wife.

Fang Xiaoxiao laughed.

"Murong, you shouldn't speak such profound words to Miss Yu."

Murong Changqing immediately understood upon hearing this.

He then laughed.

"Yes, yes, my wife is right."

"My dear wife, you don't mind, do you?"

Fang Xiaoxiao let out a burp, looking apologetic.

"I'm not a dog, how could I be disgusted? I just ate too much and can't eat any more food."

"If you cook too much, you can ask Jin Yan if he wants more."

Long Jinyan then walked out of the house, shirtless, revealing his muscular physique.

He sniffed, smelled the delicious aroma of wine, and slowly walked towards the source.

"Wow, my dear wife, you're so kind of you to bring us apricot blossom wine! Bring it here quickly!"

"Apricot blossom wine!"

Upon hearing this, Murong Changqing immediately placed the bowl and chopsticks he was holding on the stone table.

He sidestepped the lame woman blocking his way and took the lead to stand in front of his wife.

"Quickly bring out the wine! Today, I must have a three-hundred-round battle with Brother Jinyan!"

"Hey, with your wine, let alone three hundred rounds, I'll admit defeat if you can even last three rounds."

Long Jinyan followed closely behind and came to Li Renyi's side.

His eyes gleamed with golden light, and he smacked his lips, clearly having been craving wine for a long time.

Especially since the last time I tasted the apricot blossom wine, I've been thinking about it every day.

During this time, he not only helped plow the three acres of fertile land at home, but also helped some widows plow their fields, and even learned skills such as harvesting wheat.

The widows not only provided him with food, but also gave him a lot of money, totaling as much as fifty coins.

He was just about to ask his wife to buy some apricot blossom wine.

Seeing how greedy the two looked, Fang Xiaoxiao couldn't do anything about it, so she had her husband lead them to the stone table.

As for Yu Donglei in front of him, just let her stand there and pretend you didn't see her.

Yu Donglei brought her family's thugs with her today, in order to prevent Fang Xiaoxiao from doing anything bad to her again.

Of course, her most important purpose was to come for Pei Yan.

After not seeing him for several days, today, according to the servants, Pei Yan has returned to Fang Xiaoxiao's courtyard.

She definitely couldn't let this opportunity slip by.

But now, his good deed is about to be ruined.

Yu Donglei said angrily.

"Fang Xiaoxiao, what do you mean?"

"?"

Fang Xiaoxiao was about to walk to the stone table when she was stopped by him, who stared at her with a murderous look.

She replied coldly.

"If you are sick, go see a doctor."

"you……"

"What do you mean, 'you'? You come to my house and disturb my husband. I haven't even asked you what you mean, and you're already questioning me."

"Hmph, you are not worthy of Pei Yan at all. I was just standing up for Young Master Pei."

Yu Donglei acted as if she were in the right and started arguing unreasonably.

Fang Xiaoxiao was too lazy to pay attention, leaving behind a comment that she was sick, and reached out to knock away the arm that was blocking her.

She stepped aside from Dong Lei, walked straight to the stone table, and shouted.

"Pei Yan, would you like some apricot blossom wine? Let me know if you're going to or not!"

inside the house.

Upon hearing that it was apricot blossom wine, Pei Yan's mouth watered instantly.

He had already smelled the aroma of wine when Fang Xiaoxiao led her people into the courtyard.

However, he was annoyed by Yu Donglei's entanglement and thought he should go back to his room to avoid her for a while.

What a tacky name! I've never even heard of it in my life. It must be cheap liquor.

Yu Donglei laughed heartily at this moment.

"What apricot blossom wine? I've never heard of it. How could Young Master Pei drink such garbage? Fang Xiaoxiao, don't bring any dregs, or Young Master Pei will get angry!"
