"Yang Ming, I think I should go back. She probably doesn’t want to see . I’ll co back when she’s almost better,"
Chu Lian worried that seeing him now might upset her further. She had barely escaped death and was still so weak.
Once she recovered in a few days, his presence would be less of a shock, as her resilience would be stronger than it was now.
"Hmm, that might be best."
"I’ll have my kitchen maid co over every day to make her so nourishing food; you help smooth things over when the ti cos."
"..." Chu Lian had given them a tough problem again. How could they smooth this over? Their family wasn’t wealthy enough to afford a chef.
"Brother Chu, maybe it’s better not to have the kitchen maid co. It’ll be discovered."
After thinking it over for a mont, Chu Lian then said, "Then I won’t send her. I’ll have so food delivered instead, and you can take care of preparing it."
"Hmm." That proposal was still acceptable. Wang Xiangxiang indeed needed nourishnt, and this spared them the trouble of buying the rich foods themselves.
"If there’s anything, co find at the Chu Mansion or send a ssage through soone at Yuelai Restaurant."
"Got it." Yang Ming thought to himself that Chu Lian, now that he had soone in his heart, had started to be excessively verbose. He wasn’t like this before.
So while Wang Xiangxiang was still fast asleep, Chu Lian left with his carriage.
Because of Wang Xiangxiang’s condition, the Yang Family hadn’t gone out to work today.
By the pond, Yang Wuzhu was in charge, so there wouldn’t be any major issues.
At the rented courtyard, the great aunt was watching over, so there wouldn’t be any major issues there either.
By the ti Xiaoxiao woke up, it was already noon. "Husband, how is Sister Wang?"
"She’s still sleeping."
"..." She must be really weak, hence the need for more sleep.
"Wife, since you’re awake, it’s ti for lunch. Let’s go to the Main House to eat."
"Hmm."
Xiaoxiao’s stomach was truly starting to feel hungry, so she quickly got up and followed Yang Ming to the Main House.
Upon seeing the people at the dining table, Xiaoxiao’s brows furrowed as she calculated in her mind, "When are Han Yongsheng and his folks actually going to leave?"
After eating, seeing Han Yongsheng getting up to return to his room, Xiaoxiao stopped him.
"Mr. Han, if I may ask bluntly, how long do you intend to stay with us?"
Xiaoxiao had already categorized Han Yongsheng as a cunning rchant, so her tone was not very friendly.
Han Yongsheng was very calm and simply said, "No rush."
"..." Xiaoxiao was really frustrated to the point of feeling ill. He wasn’t in a hurry, but she was! Their ho was already in chaos; they hardly had ti to entertain outsiders.
"Mr. Han, seeing the current chaotic state of our household, perhaps you could..."
Han Yongsheng caught on to Xiaoxiao’s hint. She was trying to send him away. "I rarely co here; why don’t you take to see your fish pond instead?"
Xiaoxiao hesitated. They were competitors, after all. But Yang Ming quickly agreed.
"Mr. Han, I had just that in mind. Why don’t I take you there right now?"
Han Yongsheng clasped his hands in salute, "Then I shall follow your kind offer, please!"
Seeing the situation thus, Xiaoxiao agreed as well. The road wasn’t owned by her family. Even if she refused, they would still find out.
Thus, Yang Ming drove the carriage, pulling Xiaoxiao, Han Yongsheng, and his attendant Ada, and soon they arrived at the depression.
As the group got out of the carriage and walked towards the half-completed pond, admiring the grand construction, Han Yongsheng beca even more eager to initiate a partnership.
"Young Master Yang, regarding the cooperation, I think we should discuss it further!"
