Upon hearing Sun's words, Xu Qianqian couldn't help but secretly mock Sun. Although Sun was a fool, it was enough that she could help her deal with Lian Yao. Now that she was pregnant with this child, she no longer had to worry about the Princess Consort kicking her out of the mansion after she recovered.

Moreover, her future life in the Prince's mansion was now secure. The reason she was so eager to visit Madam Sun was that she wanted to show off in front of her.

Seeing that Madam Sun was even happier than she was, she felt relieved. If she wanted to pray for her, she could go. Whether it was just for appearances or genuine, it was good that someone was protecting the child in her womb.

Thinking this, Xu Qianqian was unwilling to stay in Madam Sun's courtyard any longer. She simply got up, took Madam Sun's hand, and said:

“Sister, I’m pregnant right now and can’t stay outside for long. I’m afraid Brother Chunlin will be angry if he can’t find me in my courtyard. Now that I see you’re alright, I’m relieved. I have to go back now.”

Mrs. Sun nodded with a smile and said:

"Right now that you're pregnant, it's not easy for you to move around, so don't go out too much. Go back quickly, don't worry about me."

As she spoke, Madam Sun escorted Xu Qianqian out of the courtyard. Only after Xu Qianqian had gone far away did Madam Sun look down with disgust at the hands she had just used to support her. She went straight into the house and washed them several times with water before sitting down, her eyes cold and lost in thought.

After finishing her business in the Princess's courtyard, Jiang Yuwei called Xia Yue and Yun Qing and headed to the residence on Golden Street. She wasn't at ease with Tie Zhu guarding the place alone.

After all, Qiuyue is still living in the courtyard. If someone with ulterior motives finds out, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble.

When Jiang Yuwei led the two into the courtyard, she found that the courtyard was changing every day. Old Wang was quite skilled at his work; he could carve flowers out of ordinary pieces of wood.

Even the window frames and doorposts in this courtyard are designed and matched perfectly, giving people a refreshing and grand feeling.

Jiang Yuwei glanced at the progress of the courtyard renovation and then went to Qiuyue's courtyard. Qiuyue had always lived in this courtyard, so it didn't need much renovation at the moment.

Tie Zhu had already cleared away the weeds, and Xia Yue had cleaned the house inside and out. The things inside the house were basically undamaged. All that was left was to find someone to replace all the roof tiles after the yard was repaired.

Qiuyue can recognize people now. When she saw Jiang Yuwei arrive, she quickly pulled her to sit down next to the desk and showed Jiang Yuwei the words she had written.

"Our Qiuyue is really amazing. She can write by herself now. Her handwriting is quite good."

After saying that, Jiang Yuwei put down the writing Qiu Yue had done, pulled her to lie down on the bed, and began to perform acupuncture on her.

"Madam, the medicine you prescribed is really effective. I've been bringing it to her these past few days, and I've noticed that Qiuyue is getting more and more lucid every day. She occasionally says a few words of thanks. She knows we're good to her, so she's very cooperative."

Jiang Yuwei nodded.

"I just took Qiuyue's pulse and I can see that her illness is getting worse every day. In a few days, I will change her prescription. After she finishes this prescription, she should be back to normal."

As Xia Yue tidied the messy table, she said happily:

"Madam, you have truly done a great deed that has accumulated merit."

Jiang Yuwei smiled as she removed the silver needles from Qiu Yue's body, then stood up and said:

"Stop flattering me. I've seen how hard you've worked these past few days. Once Qiuyue recovers, you'll have another helper by your side, and things will be easier for you."

Xia Yue smiled and wrung out the rag.

“I’m not afraid of being tired. I just want Qiuyue to get better soon. What a wonderful girl she is, to have stayed in this deserted courtyard for so many years. Even the best person would be worn out by this. Qiuyue has suffered more than me, and I am willing to take care of her.”

Jiang Yuwei patted Xia Yue on the shoulder and said:

“I know you’re a kind-hearted girl. You stay here and do your work. I’ll go for a walk around the streets.”

With that, Jiang Yuwei left the house and walked outside.

She was thinking that Aunt Zhou and the others were making a lot of money by setting up their stalls every day, and now that she had some extra money, she might as well put her previous idea of ​​opening a food court into practice.

If we could find a suitable shop on this Golden Street, that would be wonderful. After Aunt Zhou and the others move here, they won't have to work so hard setting up a stall outside in the wind and sun every day. Moving the snacks indoors would be much more convenient.

As Jiang Yuwei pondered this, she strolled along the road. After walking for a short while, she spotted a shop that was up for sale and hurried inside.

The shop has two floors, with a spacious and bright interior. The owner probably wanted to make the front space bigger, so he also included the backyard. As a result, the main hall must be at least the size of five or six rooms.

When a waiter saw Jiang Yuwei enter, he hurried to greet her.

"Hello, sir, our restaurant is currently not in business. The owner is selling the shop back to his hometown."

Jiang Yuwei said with a smile:

"I'm not here to eat, I just came to check out your shop. Where is your owner?"

"Our boss is entertaining distinguished guests upstairs. Please have a seat for a moment while I go up and tell him."

Jiang Yuwei nodded and sat down, looking around the shop while waiting for the owner to come out.

Soon, a tall, thin middle-aged man dressed in blue came down from the second floor, followed by the same waiter from before.

"Manager Li, this lady would like to take a look at our shop."

Manager Li walked up to Jiang Yuwei, looked her up and down, and then said indifferently:

"My shop has two floors and a backyard. It's spacious and in a great location. Many nobles from the capital live on this Golden Street. If you can take over my shop, you'll have no worries about business."

Jiang Yuwei stared intently at the man before her. He exuded the shrewdness of a businessman, which made her feel somewhat uncomfortable. So she spoke calmly:

"If business is so good, why would Manager Li need to sell this shop? With such a lucrative business, wouldn't it be better to manage it himself?"

Manager Li's expression stiffened upon hearing Jiang Yuwei's words.

"Well, I have some family matters to attend to and can no longer run this shop, so I thought of selling it. If I weren't tied up, I would never have been willing to sell this shop."

Jiang Yuwei smiled faintly and sat back down at the table.

"If that's the case, then it makes sense. I wonder how much silver Manager Li wants to sell this shop for?"
