Chapter 255: Following Nantong Shang
"Yes, my father and mother are blessing me in heaven. Although my sister married a farmer, her parents-in-law are kind and your brother-in-law has never scolded me." Yao Meixian glanced at Du Jiang and sighed with satisfaction. "When Wanwan was a child, she always liked to talk to ants and bees. People in the village said that she was weird and had a problem with her brain, and called her a disaster star.
Even so, her grandparents didn’t mind. They would quarrel with anyone who dared to say anything. Later, after the old couple passed away, our Wanwan suffered.”
"It's all in the past." Du Jiang disagreed, "We have been driven out by the people of Dujia Village, so we won't fight with them. From now on, we will form our own lineage, and I will be the ancestor who opened the family tree."
After hearing his joke, Yao Meixian's sadness about parting was alleviated.
"Yes, we have our own lineage, and the ancestor who opened the family tree is our parents, not you."
Du Jiang did not object at all: "You are right, we need to write down clearly in the family tree why we were expelled."
Yao Xianqing laughed when he heard this, thinking that although his elder sister did not live a life of luxury, it was not bad for her to live a warm and happy life for most of her life.
It is better than marrying into a rich family, there is no strife in the harem, and you can live happily. My eldest sister's life can be said to be bitter before sweet, and she has a lot of blessings after suffering.
The next day.
Du Wanwan asked Du Xiuxiu to take care of the clinic early in the morning, and she took Yao Xianqing to Nantong Trading Company.
She had never been to this place before, and today was her first time.
She didn't know why, but as soon as she walked in, the waiters greeted her enthusiastically.
Even people who looked like they were about to go out would specially run over to greet her politely with a smile. Du Wanwan felt a little embarrassed by being called "Hello, Dr. Du" one after another.
Why were the people from Nantong Commercial Bank so polite to her?
Walking to the front desk, Du Wanwan asked politely, "Is the shopkeeper here? I want to meet him and discuss business with him."
"Yes, Dr. Du! Please wait a moment, I'll go call back." The waiter bowed to her and ran to the second floor.
Not long after, a man in his forties came out. He was of medium build, neither fat nor thin, with bright eyes and looked very majestic.
"Doctor Du is here! Please come upstairs!" The shopkeeper clasped his fists and bowed to Du Wanwan, making a "please" gesture.
Du Wanwan didn't hesitate and took her uncle with her, following the shopkeeper upstairs and into a room with elegant and exquisite decoration.
"Doctor Du! Please take a seat!" The shopkeeper was very respectful to her. "What do you want to see me for?"
The shopkeeper was speaking to Du Wanwan, but his eyes were on Yao Xianqing.
Du Wanwan got straight to the point: "This is my uncle. He wants to go back to Dongchen. He wants to go to Southern Xinjiang with Nantong Commercial Bank, and then follow the people from Nantong Commercial Bank back to Dongchen. I wonder if it would be convenient for him."
Yao Xianqing thought that he could go on his own after reaching southern Xinjiang, but then he thought, he was carrying such valuable things with him, and if something bad happened on the way, it would be better to have more friends than others.
The niece's consideration was right, so she followed Nantong Shang all the way to be safe. The things he brought back this time were really extraordinary, so it was always right to be cautious.
Dongchen has been in chaos in recent years, with bandits and robbers everywhere.
The shopkeeper said without hesitation: "As long as it is Doctor Du's order, we will do it without fail. This is what our boss said. Doctor Du's words are the boss' words, and we will absolutely obey them."
Hearing this, Yao Xianqing's eyes showed great shock. He didn't expect that his niece had such a high status. The people of Nantong Commercial Bank treated her the same as their master.
"You're welcome." Du Wanwan, who was dressed in men's clothes, had a calm expression on her face. She didn't feel excited at all and said maturely, "Then tell me how much the escort will cost so that I can ask my uncle to prepare it."
"Doctor Du! You are too polite." The shopkeeper smiled and waved his hand, "Last time our Ninth Princess came, she told us that if Doctor Du wants to use Nantong Commercial Bank in the future, it is to give us face, so we dare not charge money."
Du Wanwan was stunned for a moment, then sighed: "Boss, we still have to follow the rules. We can't waive the money we should collect, otherwise it will be difficult to repay the debt of favor!"
The shopkeeper burst into laughter when he heard this: "Hahaha! Doctor Du knows that too! Our Ninth Princess is so anxious. Every time she goes back, she asks why Doctor Du doesn't need Nantong Commercial Bank's help?
It's a rare opportunity today, we can't miss it, this is our Ninth Princess repaying Doctor Du for a favor. Doctor Du! Do you think you can accept it? If you don't accept it, how can we explain it to the Ninth Princess when we go back?"
Yao Xianqing sat on the side without saying anything. He didn't know what to say at this time.
He was asked to do a favor for his niece, what else could he say?
Du Wanwan was interested in Yu Hanyan: "Is the Ninth Princess okay? How is the baby?"
"The Ninth Princess is doing well. She has divorced her husband and the child is hers." The shopkeeper seemed happy to share the news about Yu Hanyan with Du Wanwan. "Nantong Commercial Bank is now under the control of the Ninth Princess. She has something to do every day and doesn't feel bored.
She also said that she learned this from you, Doctor Du? She often said that she learned this from Doctor Du.
"Oh? What?"
Du Wanwan talked a lot to Yu Hanyan. That girl was just a naive person. She would treat people with all her heart if she saw someone she liked, and she was not afraid that they would sell her out.
At that time, everyone was fleeing famine and met by chance. Seeing how heartless she was, I couldn't help but say a few more words to her.
The shopkeeper did not hide it and immediately said, "Step on a man like Duan Zhengqing and make him feel the pain. Only then will he understand how precious the princess's kindness is."
"Indeed. I said this. The princess's husband is a scumbag and should be trampled into dust." Du Wanwan never shirks responsibility. She admits what she says.
Even though Yao Xianqing didn't know what was going on between the Princess of Southern Xinjiang and her husband Duan Zhengqing, he was delighted to see his niece being so domineering.
If the Prince of Pingyang dares to bully her in the future, he will probably end up in trouble.
"Hahaha!" The shopkeeper laughed. "Doctor Du is really an amazing person. My niece listened to you and kicked her consort away when she returned, bringing disaster to the Duan family as well."
"They asked for it." Du Wanwan smiled indifferently, with a hint of sarcasm, "Didn't he like a singer named Liu Chunchun? The princess divorced him and made him and the singer come together. Isn't it just a coincidence that they have similar interests?"
"Doctor Du is right. Duan Zhengqing really liked that singer. Unfortunately, after he left the princess, the Duan family fell into poverty, and the singer ran away from him. Hahaha! Duan Zhengqing got himself into disgrace in our Southern Xinjiang capital. He became a joke. Don't even mention how embarrassed he is."
The shopkeeper did not hide his gloating at all when talking about this matter, and laughed heartily.
Du Wanwan also laughed: "The princess has avenged her great hatred, so she must be in a good mood."
"Yes!" The shopkeeper stopped smiling, "I just miss Doctor Du very much."
