Fatty Liu thought about it and agreed: "I can give you 10% of the profits, but only if you can get me the secret recipe for Fu'an Ointment."
Little Stone nodded, looked down at the woman behind him, and said softly, "I want to marry her!"
"No problem, as long as you get the recipe, I'll make sure you marry her in style!"
"Someone come here, quickly help Little Stone up!"
The two reached an agreement, and Little Stone became Fatty Liu's honored guest. Fatty Liu arranged a separate courtyard for him in his mansion, where the girl served him.
Not only that, he also announced to the public that Little Stone had joined his side.
Old Man Li couldn't believe it when he heard this, so he rushed back, wanting to see Little Stone.
"Thank you for saving my life before. Please take care in the future."
Little Stone only said this one sentence before turning around and leaving.
Old Man Li never imagined that the person he considered his son would betray him so easily.
Old Man Li was heartbroken, but he soon realized a more serious problem: he valued and trusted Little Stone very much, so Little Stone knew the recipe for Fu'an Ointment.
Old Man Li was worried that Little Stone would tell Fatty Liu the recipe, so he hurriedly went to find Han Luoxue.
That's how the scene just now happened.
However, he didn't know that Little Stone had been beaten and was eventually taken down by Fatty Liu using his beauty.
Seeing that Little Stone had sent Old Man Li away, Fatty Liu smiled with satisfaction. He returned to his room, where his several young and beautiful concubines hurriedly came forward to serve him.
"Master, you are truly remarkable! This kid is no match for you at all!"
One of the concubines said ingratiatingly.
The other was not to be outdone: "Master is a master strategist; no one in this world can escape his grasp!"
Hearing this, Fatty Liu was extremely pleased with himself. He patted the woman's chest with his chubby hand and laughed smugly, "Most men in the world are like this!"
The magistrate was a lecherous man, and he had about seventy or eighty concubines in his household. As for that little stone, it was obvious at first glance that he was a virgin.
"Master, I wonder why you didn't use your feminine wiles from the beginning?"
One of the concubines asked curiously.
Fatty Liu smiled smugly: "You wouldn't understand, would you?"
Two concubines walked up behind him, one on each side gently massaging his shoulders. Fatty Liu closed his eyes comfortably: "If I had used a honey trap from the start, this kid would definitely have been on guard."
"Beat him up, beat him half to death, and he'll be filled with fear and worry. Then suddenly a beautiful woman appears. How do you think that would feel?"
"When two people have feelings for each other, I'll use a few tricks to make it a fait accompli, hehe..."
The concubines showered him with compliments, making Fatty Liu extremely pleased with himself. If there's one trick in the world that works best, it's the honey trap; he never tires of using it.
...
By this time, Han Luoxue had finished her meal. Zhou Jie and Han Luoyu helped Xiao Tao clear the table, and Wang Yan and Mu Yurou also said their goodbyes.
Since Han Luoxue gave birth, the two of them have been considerate and haven't mentioned the spices again. Han Luoxue called out to Zhou Jun.
What do you think of Wang Yan?
"Madam, I..."
Zhou Jun scratched his head awkwardly: "I hadn't thought of that!"
She thought about it carefully. Wang Yan was actually quite good-looking, but the two of them hadn't had much contact, and she didn't have a good impression of this woman at first.
Seeing Zhou Jun's expression, Han Luoxue knew that things were probably hopeless between them. Zhou Jun was such a blockhead; even after all her hints, he still wouldn't get it. Han Luoxue was speechless.
"Then you can go out and get busy!"
Seeing Zhou Jun leave, Zhou Jie chuckled and said, "Little Xue'er, are you really planning to play matchmaker?"
"No, I just think Wang Yan is pretty good, but sometimes she talks too fast and can easily offend people. If Zhou Jun is interested in her, I can put in a good word for him!"
"But I don't think Zhou Jun is interested in her!"
Zhou Jie laughed heartily: "That's right, actually, most of the men in our Zhou family are like that, so stubborn and clueless!"
Hearing this, Han Luoxue laughed: "You're talking about the men of your Zhou family, but I think the women are the same. How old are you? Aren't you just as clueless?"
Suddenly, when the topic turned to herself, Zhou Jie wasn't embarrassed at all: "I'm different from them, Xue'er. If I meet a man I like, I'll definitely take the initiative! If he doesn't agree, I'll snatch him back and make him my bandit husband!"
Han Luoxue chuckled. There aren't many people in this world as domineering as Zhou Jie.
But then she suddenly remembered something and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Sister Xue'er, what are you laughing at!"
Zhou Jie suddenly felt that Han Luoxue's smile was a bit inexplicable.
"I'm thinking about my brother Chen. Before, she was our family's live-in son-in-law! But now..."
"Haha, I almost forgot about this! The son-in-law who lives with his wife's family—I could laugh about this for a year!"
"But the baby is already a month old, and he's still not finished with his work, and hasn't come to see the baby even once! I'm still a little worried."
Not only did Han Yuchen not come, but Zhou Yuan didn't come either.
I don't know what the situation is like in the capital right now; the news from there says everything is fine.
Zhou Yuan once said that Ouyang Fu had disappeared and no one knew where he had gone.
Han Yuchen was worried about not being able to find Ouyang Fu, so he couldn't bring her back.
Actually, it's quite good here. Now that she's out of confinement and can move around freely again, she can go out and find a shop to open an embroidery room for her mother.
"Madam Han, what should we do with our prescription?"
Old Li was still worried about the prescription when Doctor Xu chuckled and said, "Old Li, Old Li, you're all so old, how can you still be so stupid? Have you tried making your prescription yourself?"
Old Li shook his head. He had been busy with the shop lately. He had seen the prescriptions, but he hadn't personally prepared them.
"I have a pharmacy right here, why don't you go in and try it?"
Old Li was startled. Could there be some secret to that prescription? If so, Little Stone's situation might be...
That's enough. He's already betrayed me, so why should I worry about him? No matter what happens in the future, it's all his own doing. It's no exaggeration to say that he brought it on himself.
Old Li was anxious and urged, "Where is the pharmacy? I'll try!"
Doctor Xu revealed a mysterious smile and led Old Man Li into the next room.
Han Luoyu followed her inside; the pharmacy was extremely spacious.
Xiao Tao saw them go inside and followed them. She had been helping with the pharmaceutical production recently.
