Chapter 52: Don't mess with the hidden needle in the cotton

She stared at him with eyes wide open in disbelief.

He gritted his teeth, suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "Lu Yun is the foundation of the Sun family's foothold in the business world. If we give it up, how can the Sun family survive in the business world? Brother Shen, aren't you deliberately making things difficult for me?"

“Besides, even if I personally agree to Brother Shen, the other elders will definitely not agree if they know about it.”

"Oh, so you knew that too." Chen Mu said in a calm tone, his eyes full of sarcasm.

"You know how to consider the Sun family, so is there a problem with me considering the Shen family? If we offend the emperor because of this matter, how will the Shen family gain a foothold in the court in the future?"

“Even if I agree to this, my father and Uncle Seven will not agree.” Chen Mu responded with his words.

These words made Sun Ziqian at a loss for words, and he tried to explain himself with a pale face.

"The two are different. Lu Yun is the lifeblood of the Sun family, but my cousin's affairs are just a piece of cake for you."

Sun Ziqian felt that Chen Mu just didn’t want to help.

"Really?" Chen Mu glanced at him. "In my opinion, Lu Yun is even less important to the Sun family. Even if the business is gone, we can just keep doing it. If my father gets involved in this mess, it will cost him his life."

Sun Ziqian took a deep breath. He never knew Chen Mu could be so unreasonable.

But thinking of his grandmother's threat, he knew that he would not be able to accomplish anything, and his family's status would definitely be threatened when he returned.

Thinking of this, he clenched his fists. He had to find a way to make Chen Mu agree to this.

"You think Lu Yun is the lifeblood of the Sun family because you care about the Sun family and value the Sun family." Chen Mu's voice was cold and distant: "You think what I am doing is a trivial matter, that's because you think the life and death of the Shen family has nothing to do with you."

"Then why should the Shen family be dragged into this by you?"

"Don't do to others what you don't want done to you. When you can give up Lu Yun, come and talk to me about this matter."

"Mo Bai, see you off."

Sun Ziqian was expelled by Mo Bai.

I have been to the Duke's Mansion so many times, but this is the first time I have been kicked out. I resent Chen Mu in my heart for being too ruthless.

When Sun Ziqian was kicked out of the house, the news quickly reached the ears of other members of the Shen family.

Shen Qingyi couldn't help but sigh that her elder brother was really awesome.

He could make secret plans, eliminate the danger, and use this opportunity to kick Sun Ziqian away so that he wouldn't dare to come to him again.

This method is brilliant.

As for that cousin of the Sun family, he repaid his elder brother with ingratitude and abused him, but he was only dismissed from his position, which was too easy for him.

**

Xiao Wan'er had just woken up and saw herself in an unfamiliar environment with only Shen Yuanhao by her side. Her big eyes were full of question marks.

[Why am I here with Uncle Seven? Where's Mom?]

She was not afraid when she was next to her Seventh Uncle, and she did not cry when she woke up. Instead, she turned over, reached out and tugged at Shen Yuanhao's sleeve, and cried a few times.

She has grown a lot during this period, with a chubby little face, big watery eyes, and long eyelashes. She looks like a Fubao doll, pretty and cute, and everyone who sees her likes her.

When Shen Wan opened her eyes, Shen Yuanhao woke up, but kept his eyes closed, wanting to see what she would say.

It wasn't until she tugged at his sleeve that he slowly opened his eyes and looked at the little kid with a smile in his eyes: "Xiao Wan'er, are you awake? Uncle Qi was tired from reading just now, so he took a nap."

As he spoke, he deliberately loosened his fingers slightly, and the book slipped in front of her eyes.

Chen Wan happened to see the title of the book.

[Uncle Qi is reading a medical book? ]

How could I have forgotten that Uncle Seven is a doctor, and he originally wanted to save Sister Yuese.

[After my eldest brother's legs were seriously injured, my seventh uncle devoted himself even more to studying medicine.]

[That's great! Uncle Qi and I both love studying medicine.]

If I could speak now, I would tell Uncle Qi what he doesn't know. Wouldn't that be more efficient than seeing a doctor?

"No, I'm just a baby. Even if I grow up, my parents didn't send me to study medicine. If I suddenly become a doctor, will they think I'm not their child?"

[When I learn to speak, I will cover my mouth and never reveal anything.]

"..." Shen Yuanhao curled the corner of his mouth, but it's useless to hide it, everyone already knows your secret.

He put his fist to his mouth to hide his smile.

How can a little baby be so cute?

Uncle Qi read this book to get rid of the abscess on Sister Yuese's face.

[The prescriptions in this book are mostly for beauty care, but it's impossible to cure abscesses.]

"If only I could speak, I could tell Uncle Qi the formula for the rejuvenating cream."

Hearing about the rejuvenating cream, Shen Yuanhao's heart trembled.

Last time, Xiao Waner only talked about the detoxification method, but omitted the formula of the rejuvenating cream.

Ye Yuise has been taking medicine for seven consecutive days. He can use silver needles to force out the poison tomorrow, but he doesn't know the formula of the rejuvenating ointment, so he has to carry her over.

He picked up the medical technique and sighed, "I've looked at this prescription many times, and I always feel like something is missing, but I can't find a better prescription than this one at the moment."

Shen Yuanhao seemed to be talking to himself, his handsome face full of sorrow.

Uncle Qi, remove the musk, radix rehmanniae, and orchid from the recipe in the book. Add pearl powder, peony petals, frankincense, salvia miltiorrhiza, and other herbs. Simmer it with honey for seven hours to make a paste. Apply it once a day, morning and night. You'll see noticeable results after three days.

[Sister Yeyue is a stunningly beautiful woman, if you see her, you will definitely fall in love with her.]

"It's all my fault for being so young. Otherwise, I could use my spiritual power to tell you the prescription in your dream."

!!!

Mental power or entering other people's dreams?

No wonder Chen Yaoxing has been so anxious these days, like an ant on a hot pan, wanting to know how to cultivate his mental power. This power is so strong, it would be strange if he wasn't tempted.

Not long after she memorized the recipe in her mind, the wet nurse saw that it was time for her to drink milk and came over in time to take her away.

Being held by the nanny, Xiao Wan'er waved her chubby little hands and said goodbye to Shen Yuanhao, completely unaware that she was being used as a tool.

Looking at her actions, Shen Yuanhao curled his lips and smiled, feeling warm in his heart.

It would be great if such a sensible and lovely child was her daughter.

But when I thought about the fact that I didn’t even have a wife, I felt even more lost.

Only when the little milk bag completely disappeared from his sight did Shen Yuanhao turn around and go to the pharmacy.

"This is so strange. My mother and nanny are here, so why did they leave me to Uncle Seven? Could it be that they knew the Shen family was on the verge of collapse? Did they want me and Uncle Seven to develop a closer relationship? So they left me to Uncle Seven to raise?"

After eating and drinking, Shen Wan was carried back to the house. Looking at Mrs. Shen who was checking the accounts, Shen Wan stretched out her hand and cried out "ah ah" twice, asking for a hug.

Hearing the sound of the milk baby, Mrs. Shen immediately stood up and took the small milk bag from the wet nurse.

"Xiao Wan'er is back. Your seventh uncle said he had nothing to do at home today, so he brought you over to keep him company. Did you cry when you saw the unfamiliar surroundings?"

Shen Wan clutched Madam Shen's collar and showed her pink gums to her.

【I didn’t cry. I was very good.】

Yes, yes, my little Wan'er is the best.

At this moment, Shen Qingyi's personal maid came over and bowed to Madam Shen, "Madam, the princess and Miss Rong are here and want to see the young lady. The young lady asked this servant to come and tell them."

[Is she the eldest daughter of the Rong family? ]
