Chapter 381 Pei Mingzhu's Ex-husband's Name

"Sister, do you know Fu Yanchen—"

Fu Yanchen, that is the name of Pei Mingzhu's ex-husband.

Since Pei Mingzhu chose to divorce Fu Yanchen and cut ties with the Fu family six months after their marriage, no one in the entire Pei family dared to mention Fu Yanchen's name again.

Even their only child, Pei Tianci, took Pei Mingzhu's surname instead of Fu Yanchen.

At the beginning, the Pei family and the Fu family were a powerful business marriage. Even if Pei Mingzhu and Fu Yanchen could not be considered childhood sweethearts, they had met when they were young and danced together at a ballroom dance. The two families knew each other well.

A marriage between wealthy families like this will most likely not be too ugly, and the two can live a glorious life together with mutual accommodation until old age.

Only Pei Mingzhu and Fu Yanchen, their wedding was known to the whole city, with ten miles of red wedding ceremonies, and it was a grand and magnificent event. I wonder how many unmarried girls envied them.

Unexpectedly, this wealthy marriage only lasted for half a year. After half a year, the two divorced quickly and decisively. From then on, the Fu family and the Pei family completely broke off relations and never had any contact with each other again.

Half a year later, Pei Mingzhu gave birth to Pei Tianci, the next generation heir of the Pei family.

During this period, rumors continued to spread that although Pei Tianci was conceived by Pei Mingzhu during her marriage to Fu Yanchen, the father of the child was not Fu Yanchen.

If it is really Fu Yanchen's child, why would the Fu family let their flesh and blood be left outside and not snatch the child from Pei Mingzhu?

There were all kinds of rumors, but they were only talked about in private, and no one dared to say them in front of Pei Mingzhu.

Even Pei Hanchuan didn't dare.

He was afraid that Pei Mingzhu would be sad, so he didn't even dare to mention Fu Yanchen's name.

now.

The three words "Fu Yanchen" came out of Pei Hanchuan's mouth impulsively. He looked at Pei Mingzhu who looked up from the account book, her thin willow-shaped eyebrows slightly wrinkled.

When Pei Hanchuan saw this, he wanted to slap him hard in the face.

Why was he so impulsive? Why didn't he control his mouth? Why did he mention Fu Yanchen's name?

No matter how anxious he was, he could investigate privately and should not put it in front of Pei Mingzhu.

Pei Mingzhu seemed not to have heard Pei Hanchuan's words clearly. She frowned slightly, but did not react any further. She just asked calmly, "Hanchuan, what's the matter?"

This is the accounting office at the back of the drugstore. Not only is Pei Mingzhu there, but the middle-aged manager of the drugstore is also standing next to him. His surname is Liu. He is the accounting clerk and also an experienced Chinese medicine practitioner with many years of experience. Otherwise, he would not have been able to manage such a large drugstore for decades.

Seeing that Pei Mingzhu did not hear the name "Fu Yanchen", Pei Hanchuan stopped talking.

He slowly calmed down and said, "Sister, I got some medicine from Chu Yue, come and see Shopkeeper Liu."

"Is it Chu Yue?" Pei Mingzhu asked.

"Yes, she did it herself."

Both of them knew that Chu Yue had extraordinary medical skills. Since the medicine was made by Chu Yue herself, they certainly couldn't be careless.

Shopkeeper Liu had also heard of Chu Yue's name, and had even seen the prescription Chu Yue prescribed for Pei Tianci, which was quite unique.

Therefore, the three of them put away the half-read account books, and Pei Hanchuan placed the ointment and medicated oil made by Chu Yue on the desk.

Shopkeeper Liu picked it up, looked at it and smelled it.

To an outsider, what they smell is the scent of medicinal oil for treating bruises and injuries. The only difference is that the smell is stronger or weaker, and other than that, they can't feel anything else.

But for experts, the influence of the medicinal materials used in the ointment on its efficacy can be known just by smelling it.

After smelling it, Shopkeeper Liu became increasingly excited. "Incredible... truly incredible... I never thought that after so many decades, someone could still make this ointment."

Pei Mingzhu turned around and asked, "Manager Liu, what's so special about this?"

"Miss, Master, to be honest, my parents are both Bai people who live in the mountains. Our village was destroyed during the war, and we had to come to the city to make a living. My parents said that the Bai people have an ancestral Bai medicine that has magical effects on treating injuries. I have only seen and used that ointment when I was a child. Although my parents have some knowledge of medicine, they don't know the formula. After the ointment at home was used up, we never found a similar one. I never thought that the Bai medicine had not been lost, and someone had passed it down."

Shopkeeper Liu became more and more excited as he spoke, his eyes slightly red. He also had Bai blood flowing in his veins, and seeing this Bai medicine was like seeing a relative.

Pei Mingzhu picked up the small iron box containing the ointment and examined it carefully with her bright eyes. "It looks like an ordinary thing, but I didn't expect it to be so special."

Pei Hanchuan said proudly, "This is something Chu Yue gave me, so of course it's not simple."

Afterwards, Pei Mingzhu glanced at Manager Liu, who understood and walked out of the office with the account book.

Pei Mingzhu sat down and asked Pei Hanchuan directly, "Hanchuan, you brought these things here, but they are not for me, right?"

"Sister, look at what you said. You are healthy and fine. I gave you the ointment to treat injuries. This is not a curse on you. How could I do such a thing?" Pei Hanchuan also sat down and took a sip of the brewed tea. Pointing at the ointment and oil, he said, "Sister, these are all business."

"Business?" Pei Mingzhu wanted to know the details.

Pei Hanchuan told Pei Mingzhu everything about Chu Yue's proposal to jointly open a pharmaceutical factory, and mentioned, "Sister, Chu Yue is not only an ordinary doctor now, she is also a military doctor. If we open a pharmaceutical factory, the first major customer will be the military region troops."

Such a business is not only safe, but also a sure win.

If Chu Yue had bigger ambitions, she wouldn't need to seek cooperation with Pei Hanchuan at all. She could open a pharmaceutical factory on her own.

"Sister, what do you think? Let's open a pharmaceutical factory for fun?" Pei Hanchuan said excitedly, and described the pharmaceutical factory, which required an investment of tens of thousands of dollars, as if it were a child's game.

Pei Mingzhu had long been accustomed to Pei Hanchuan's carelessness.

She thought more, not only of Chu Yue, but also of Chu Yue's husband Lu Zhanlin. With Lu Zhanlin's protection in the army, this business was just as Pei Hanchuan said, a sure win, a good business.

As long as Chu Yue tells others that she wants to open a pharmaceutical factory to provide medicines to the army, countless people will rush over to grab it.

She actually took the initiative to invite Pei Hanchuan, entirely because of the relationship between the two parties.

"The pharmaceutical factory needs to be opened." Pei Mingzhu made a quick decision and looked at Pei Hanchuan with her bright eyes. Her beautiful face showed shrewdness and sharpness, as well as ambition.

Pei Mingzhu never hides her ambition, and this ambition does not diminish her beauty at all.

When Pei Hanchuan heard Pei Mingzhu's answer, he stood up from his chair happily and said excitedly, "Sister, I knew you wouldn't miss this good deal. I'll go back and tell Chu Yue that you agreed."

Pei Mingzhu continued happily.

"Hanchuan, it's not me who opens the pharmaceutical factory, nor is it the Pei family who opens the pharmaceutical factory, but—you who opens it."
