He's definitely going to fall over now that he's doing a handstand.
“Sure, it’s a good thing she’s growing taller. Otherwise, she looks like a little baby, and people who don’t know her might think she’s still breastfeeding,” Pei Shijiu said.
"The portraits should be sent to the generals."
Just as Pei Zhujin was about to roll up the painting, Pei Shijiu snatched it away.
"Little brother, what are you doing? Don't mess things up."
"Brother, how often will we see the little girl? In order to avoid not recognizing her in the future, since she sent a portrait, I will have the painter make a copy first."
"There's absolutely no need for that."
"Who says it's unnecessary? It's just that there's another Qiao Ke'er who wants to impersonate a little girl."
A glint flashed in his eyes: "Also, our Pei family can testify at that time. We can say that we have a relationship with Miss Qiao, know that she took out those formations, and have her portrait."
"In this way, His Majesty will understand to some extent why the Qiao family in the capital is targeting our Pei family."
Pei Zhujin thought about it and agreed.
Although the younger brother had his own selfish motives, the Pei family still found it useful to keep a portrait.
"Go and invite the best painter in the capital."
Three days passed quickly, and no one experienced any discomfort after taking the Chu family's medicine.
On the contrary, because of its remarkable effects, even more people rushed into the Chu family's shop to buy medicinal herbs. Some of the herbs were quite rare, and this even led to a fight between customers, which the shop assistants could not stop no matter how hard they tried to persuade them.
Fortunately, Qiao Lian'er took over a large shop not far from her home and hired a few more employees, which diverted customers and restored order.
These past few days, Manager Tan has been studying the medicinal herbs he brought back. Usually, poisonous herbs can be identified by changes in color, smell, or shape when touched with certain substances, but all the herbs he tested were normal.
In this way, Manager Tan also understood the situation.
Filled with remorse, he went to the Chu family shop, shirtless and carrying a bundle of thorns on his back.
Although it's been spring for a while, the sun isn't warm enough yet, and there's an occasional chilly wind blowing through the air. If you're dressed lightly, you'll still get goosebumps.
So when they saw Manager Tan dressed in short clothes and carrying a bundle of thorns, everyone was startled.
"I was wrong, please forgive me." The first thing Manager Tan did was apologize.
"Sigh, Manager Tan, even if you misunderstood us, there's a bet on your head. You can just keep your word. There's no need for this." Old Madam Chu had a bit of a headache.
He thought to himself that it was good that Manager Tan hadn't knelt down.
"I'm not just apologizing to you; I'm repenting for my mistakes. So many good medicines are beneficial to people's health and contribute to the pharmaceutical industry. I almost misled people and ruined these good medicines."
Seeing someone carrying thorns to apologize, a large crowd gathered. Hearing that it was Manager Tan, many more doctors and managers came.
“I will keep my promise and buy all the medicinal herbs in this shop wholesale.”
The three generations of the family exchanged a glance, their brows furrowed with joy.
And just like that, a big deal came in.
Just as Qiao Lian'er was about to agree, she heard a voice say, "I say, Manager Tan, you really know how to monopolize the benefits. You're wholesaling so many good medicines to us. What are we herbal medicine shops supposed to do?"
Another shopkeeper stepped forward.
“Yes, that would create a monopoly for your pharmacy, which would be a disaster for the medicinal herb industry. If we’re going to do wholesale, we should all do it together,” one doctor said.
