Upon hearing this, Song Ruoan nodded hurriedly, finally breathing a sigh of relief.
The flower-viewing banquet is in two days. If the divine physician Qihuang gets angry now and insists on leaving, she doesn't know what to do.
"You should focus on your treatment. After this flower viewing banquet, I will gain both fame and fortune, and you will certainly receive plenty of money."
After all, the legendary physician Qihuang loves money. As long as you promise to give him money, you can keep him firmly under control without worrying about anything else.
The renowned physician smiled and said, "No rush, money is not a concern. Curing the illness is the priority; those are all external things."
The two arrived at the small kitchen, where the renowned physician Qihuang followed the same method as before, prescribing a new medicine for Huang Shi and handing the prescription to Song Ruoan.
Then, taking advantage of Song Ruoan's inattention, he increased the dosage of powder in the churning medicine.
After completing all this and confirming that Huang's condition had improved after taking the medicine, the renowned physician Qihuang returned to his room with heavy steps.
Within a few days, he began to move the valuable gifts given to him by Song Ruoan out one after another, like an ant carrying food.
First came the silver teacups, then several white porcelain vases.
No one noticed.
The room is now empty, with only a few pieces of clothing and some cheap bedding.
The renowned physician Qihuang packed up the last few pieces of clothing, touched the silver notes hidden in his inner pocket, and took another deep breath.
A-Lian was unaware of what Bronze had been watching.
That night, A-Lian reported what had happened at Guanyunxuan to Song Xizhi.
In addition, A-Lian brought news that Song Ruoan planned to hold a grand banquet to enhance her reputation and make more connections with celebrities.
This was the first major thing she accomplished after taking over the household management, and it also made everyone understand who the mistress of the Marquis's mansion was, thus paving the way for He Yunce to inherit the title in the future.
Since Song Ruoan has such plans, she will definitely confront Song Xizhi at the flower viewing banquet, and even belittle her and He Jingyan.
Song Xizhi sat on the soft couch, pondered for a moment, and then smiled.
"Since Steward Song Ruo'an intends to hold this banquet in a grand manner, then I will present her with several generous gifts at the banquet, so that her reputation will resound throughout the capital."
Song Xizhi then summoned Granny Wu and whispered a few words in her ear.
...
With Huang's health restored and the renowned physician Qihuang agreeing not to leave, Song Ruoan was finally relieved, and the Marquis's residence became lively that very night.
In the past, Song Ruoan treated several ladies and received a sum of money. After repairing the Marquis's mansion, he used the remaining money to host this flower-viewing banquet.
Since Song Ruoan held the power of steward and was a major contributor to He Yunce's promotion, this flower appreciation banquet was personally organized by Song Ruoan.
Although the household was in financial straits, Song Ruo'an had recently made many friends among the ladies, who were very willing to give her face and thus lent her a lot of rare flowers and plants.
Song Ruoan, combining her own skills, also sourced many precious medicinal herbs from various places and decorated the Marquis's residence beautifully.
Many precious flowers and plants were joyfully moved into the Marquis's residence, making the flower-viewing banquet a grand affair that was known throughout the capital.
Many officials and their relatives in the court were eager to attend the flower-viewing banquet at the Marquis of Anding's residence, and even more so, they wanted to meet the legendary divine physician.
He Yunce's name became famous overnight, even highly sought after, with countless people vying to befriend him.
When people are happy, they are in high spirits. The current situation made He Yunze feel as if he had returned to his previous life, when he was second only to the emperor and above all others.
And all of this is inseparable from the support of Song Ruoan, her virtuous wife.
He Yunze even felt that he loved Song Ruoan more than he had in his previous life.
He spent a lot of money to acquire a piece of Yun brocade, the most popular fabric in the capital at the time, and made it into a garment for Song Ruoan to wear.
Song Ruoan was absolutely captivated by the shimmering fabric.
On the day of the flower viewing banquet, she wore this same fabric and greeted the guests with He Yunce at the entrance.
She looked exactly like the mistress of a noble family.
"Young Master He, congratulations!"
"You are young and promising, and your complex and intricate policies are truly admirable."
The Minister of Rites received an invitation from the Vice Minister of Rites and visited in person.
He Yunze smiled, grasped Song Ruoan's hand tightly, and bowed slightly to the Minister of Rites.
"It's all thanks to Ruo'an, my virtuous wife, who has managed the household so well. Only then can I, the younger generation, be free from worries and shoulder the responsibilities of the Marquis's mansion, without causing my father any more trouble every day!"
Upon hearing this, the Minister of Rites paused slightly, then nodded again: "That's right, that's right, this flower-viewing banquet was indeed well done, and it's famous throughout the capital."
"I feel that Lord He has surpassed his predecessor and is even more outstanding than your elder brother. Marquis Anding will not have to worry about the future."
He Yunze shook his head modestly: "Your Excellency's praise is too much for this junior to bear."
"Come on in! Please take a seat."
After the Minister of Rites left, Song Ruoan leaned close to He Yunze's ear with a curious look and asked, "Husband, what did you mean by what you just said?"
"Why does it seem like I haven't said anything, but at the same time, I've said everything?"
He Yunze simply smiled faintly: "I said you are the mistress of the Marquis's mansion, and this flower-viewing banquet was entirely arranged by you. Since you are the mistress, then I am the master."
“I hinted to him that my father had already decided that I would inherit the title, and my grandmother had completely handed over the management of the household to you. Didn’t you hear him call me Lord He at first, but later he just called me Lord He?”
