Chapter 245 A Merchant's Daughter Living as a Widow After Her Husband Fakes His Death (19)
After Zhang Pozi finished speaking, seeing that Cang Lan didn't react much, she assumed that Cang Lan didn't believe her, and immediately hurriedly said, "Princess, everything I said is true, I dare not lie in the slightest!"
Cang Lan narrowed his eyes, a barely perceptible glint of cold light flashing within them, while a cold smile curled at the corner of his lips.
"Get up!"
She then turned to Lian Qiao and said softly, "Lian Qiao, look, Granny Zhang brought such important news, we can't treat her unfairly."
Lian Qiao understood immediately and quickly replied, "Yes, Miss." She then turned around and fetched a bag of gold leaves, placing it heavily in front of Granny Zhang.
Granny Zhang stared wide-eyed at the bag of gold leaves, her hands trembling slightly. She had never seen so much gold in her life, and everything before her felt like a dream.
"Granny Zhang, this is your reward. From now on, inform Lianqiao immediately of any movement over there. If the information is important enough, you will receive a share of the benefits."
Granny Zhang nodded hurriedly, her forehead hitting the ground with a loud thud. Her voice was full of gratitude and loyalty: "Yes, yes, this servant will definitely serve the county magistrate wholeheartedly, even at the cost of going through fire and water!"
"Go down."
Canglan waved his hand, and Granny Zhang retreated with profuse thanks, clutching the bag of gold leaves tightly as if she had grasped the wealth and glory of her future.
After Granny Zhang left, Lian Qiao couldn't help but speak up: "Miss, the Fang family's repeated schemes against you are utterly despicable! If we don't teach them a lesson, they'll really think you're easy to bully!"
Cang Lan chuckled lightly, "Don't worry, everything is under my control. How can this good show begin if the whole family of three doesn't come?"
Lian Qiao looked at her young mistress's calm and composed demeanor and secretly admired her.
She continued, "Miss, Fang Yuhong is about to return, so please be careful and don't be fooled by his sweet talk."
Canglan said, "He can't even have sex anymore, what other tricks can he pull?"
The only option is to die!
Seeing that her mistress was so confident, Lian Qiao's worries dissipated somewhat, and she said, "Yes, Miss. I have once again issued orders to all the shops, and the Fang family is absolutely not allowed to use your name to incur debts and keep accounts."
A hint of satisfaction flashed in Canglan's eyes: "Well done."
……
Two days later
Huichuntang, the largest pharmacy in the capital
Fang Yuwan walked into the pharmacy with an air of superiority, while Lin Shuang'er followed cautiously behind her.
Lin Shuang'er stepped forward, handed the prescription in her hand to the clerk behind the medicine cabinet, and said softly, "Excuse me, we need to get these medicines."
The shop assistant took the prescription, glanced at it, and immediately frowned: "Miss, these herbs are all extremely expensive, and there are quite a few of them. Our shop does not offer credit; you must pay in full at once."
Upon hearing this, Fang Yuwan's eyebrows shot up, she put her hands on her hips and shouted, "What kind of attitude is this? Do you know who owns this shop? My sister-in-law is Miss Yun Muqing of the Yun family. Just put the bill in her name!"
Upon hearing this, the men exchanged glances, and one of them couldn't help but sneer, "So you two are broke? I've never seen anyone so arrogant when they're broke?"
Fang Yuwan was so angry that her face turned red. She retorted loudly, "What do you mean by 'no money'? My sister-in-law is the daughter of the Yun family. I'm her sister-in-law. What's wrong with keeping accounts? Just go ahead and get the medicine!"
Another shop assistant sized Fang Yuwan up and down, and said coldly, "Oh, so you're from the Fang family. Why are you wearing a veil? Are you afraid of losing face by coming to buy on credit?"
To be honest, we have a rule: anyone who tries to pay in our name will be kicked out!
Fang Yuwan screamed in disbelief, "How dare you! My sister-in-law's shop will also be a Fang family business in the future, how dare you treat me like this? Be careful, or I'll have my sister-in-law kick you out!"
The waiter remained unmoved and waved his hand impatiently: "Alright, you two should leave now. Don't cause trouble here. If you don't leave, we'll report you to the authorities!"
Seeing this, Lin Shuang'er knew that she wouldn't be able to get the medicine today, so she quickly grabbed Fang Yuwan's arm, "Yuwan, let's go quickly, it's too embarrassing."
Fang Yuwan was not about to let it go, and she cursed loudly: "You bunch of snobbish bastards, you're nothing but lowly servants, how dare you be so rude to me!"
At this moment, the shopkeeper, who had never spoken before, came out from inside and said with a stern face, "Stop talking nonsense, kick them out, don't disturb the peace of the pharmacy!"
Seeing that the other party was really going to make a move, Fang Yuwan and Lin Shuang'er couldn't help but feel a little scared. They could only curse and shove as the pharmacy's employees pushed and shoved them out of the door.
Fang Yuwan was so angry that her face turned red and her hair was a little messy. She stood at the door, jumping up and down and cursing: "You bunch of snobbish bastards! Just you wait, when my older brother comes back, let's see if Yun Muqing will protect you. He will fire you all!"
Her eyes widened as she glared fiercely at the pharmacy, as if she wanted to burn two holes in the door with her gaze.
Lin Shuang'er stood to the side, her brows furrowed, her heart pounding with anxiety.
It's not hard to guess that Yun Muqing had taken precautions and informed all the shops that they would not grant credit to anyone using her name.
After Yu Hong's cousin returns, will Yun Muqing really get back together with him?
For a moment, Lin Shuang'er was unsure what to do!
She forced herself to remain calm, tugged at Fang Yuwan's sleeve, and advised, "Alright, Yuwan, let's go back first. Your elder brother will be secretly sent to the General's Mansion tonight, so we can go back and make preparations."
Fang Yuwan was still angry, muttering, "Hmph, wait until my brother comes back, they'll be sorry!" But she still reluctantly followed Lin Shuang'er back.
Back at the General's Mansion, Fang Yuwan went straight to Madam Fang's room and began to embellish her story about her experience at the pharmacy as soon as she entered.
"Mother, you didn't see their faces! They pushed and shoved me, and even said I wasn't allowed to use Yun Muqing's name to buy things on credit. It was just too much!"
Upon hearing this, Madam Fang's face turned ashen with anger. She slammed her hand on the table and said, "Hmph, it must have been that old man Yun Zhaoyuan who gave the order! He's a businessman after all, so stingy and unwilling to give up even the slightest advantage."
Her eyes seemed to spit fire, and the wrinkles on her face deepened with anger.
At this moment, Granny Zhang walked in, her face displaying just the right amount of respect, and said, "Madam, Miss, it's time for lunch."
The three of them arrived at the dining hall and saw several simple dishes laid out on the table: plain white porridge with little water, a few stir-fried vegetables that looked colorless, and a pitifully small amount of rice.
