She doesn't plan to give away the secret recipe, but once her shop opens, she might develop other branches. If the Wang family is reliable, Han Luoxue could let them join as franchisees.
She's all alone, so she can't do everything herself; she definitely needs to develop some partners.
Wang Yan is a straightforward person. If she becomes the one in charge of the Wang family in the future, Han Luoxue will still take care of her.
"Xue'er, just do what you want. We'll send them some fruit and meat another day!"
Some fruits are simply unavailable outside and are very good for women's health.
"And as for Granny Li, although we gave her some money back then, she really did help out that day, so we'll give her some too!"
Han Luoxue's side was naturally fine. She checked her storage space and found plenty of grapes, watermelons, and other things, so she would still give them some later.
As for meat, she suggested sending some pork and mutton. They had saved her life, and regardless of whether she had any ulterior motives, she wanted to thank them.
Lunch was quickly prepared, and the family had just sat down when the two little ones in the room started crying loudly.
"Are these two little ones also rushing to eat?"
Yunniang teased, and Han Luoxue smiled and said, "You guys eat first, I'll go in and feed them!"
Han Luoxue had just gone inside when Ouyang Zhen followed. Seeing Mengmeng nursing, Ouyang Zhen's eyes darkened.
"Brother Chen, what are you doing here?"
Although the two were already husband and wife and had done all sorts of intimate things, Han Luoxue still felt very uncomfortable being stared at so intently by her.
"Let's eat together in a bit!"
Ouyang Zhen stared intently at Mengmeng's little mouth, feeling that the little guy was suddenly becoming unpleasant to look at, as if he was stealing his treats.
"You go out and eat first, I'll be ready in a bit!"
Han Luoxue slightly turned her body to the side, blocking the man's burning gaze.
Ouyang Zhen sighed: "Xue'er, it's been a long time since we've been together!"
He spoke with a resentful expression. Han Luoxue's face flushed instantly. She understood what the man meant, but right now, she...
"Brother Chen, Doctor Xu said it would be best to wait until my period starts..."
"That's not what I meant, Xue'er. I just don't want to be separated from you!"
Han Luoxue sighed inwardly. She didn't want to be separated either, but the situation in the capital was unclear, Ouyang Fu hadn't been found yet, and the two children were too young. She didn't want them to be in danger.
"I believe we'll be back in the capital soon! Brother Chen, I want to open a grain store here!"
Ouyang Zhen didn't refuse: "I have no objection, whatever you like!"
Han Luoxue was still very happy to see that he did not stop her.
At this point, the little girl had almost finished eating, turned her mouth to the side, and even let out a burp.
Han Luoxue put down her clothes, picked up the little one upright, and gently patted her back a few times.
"Come here, let me hold you, you feed Zhuangzhuang first!"
It has to be said that Zhuangzhuang is very sensible; he never fights with his younger sister for food. However, it's also clear that he eats much more than Mengmeng.
After feeding the two little ones, Aunt Xu brought Miao Mei in. The two of them took the children and told Han Luoxue and the others to go out for dinner.
It was already quite late after everyone finished lunch, so they didn't go out.
Knowing they would be leaving tomorrow, Han Luoxue decided to have barbecue for dinner. She and Yunniang first cut and marinated the meat, and also prepared a lot of vegetables.
Han Mingyuan and Ouyang Zhen were also helping in the kitchen. They were leaving early tomorrow morning, so there wouldn't be much time for everyone to get together.
...
"Magistrate Wang, this is great news, a fantastic thing!"
Not long after Han Luoxue and the others left, Fatty Liu also lost interest.
He rushed to the county government office, shouting loudly.
Magistrate Wang lay in a rocking chair, basking in the sun with his eyes closed. Several women were attending to him, some massaging his shoulders, some rubbing his legs, and some massaging his feet. Such a life was not something ordinary people could enjoy.
Seeing how well the magistrate was enjoying himself, Fatty Liu was filled with envy. He thought he would try it when he got back.
However, none of these women were his sister. Fatty Liu wasn't surprised. He knew better than anyone what kind of person Magistrate Wang was. Even someone like his sister couldn't handle Magistrate Wang.
"Oh my, what's the good news?"
Magistrate Wang didn't even open his eyes, and asked lazily.
"Magistrate Wang, do you know that a stunningly beautiful woman has come to our Yancheng?"
Upon hearing the word "exquisite beauty," Magistrate Wang suddenly opened his eyes and sat up abruptly from his recliner: "How exquisite?"
Fatty Liu laughed heartily, took out a scroll from his sleeve, and handed it to Magistrate Wang.
A woman beside Magistrate Wang took the scroll, carefully unfurled it, and revealed a woman of stunning beauty inside.
"This woman looks unfamiliar, but she's incredibly beautiful. What's her background?"
He knew all the beauties of Yancheng, or at least had some recollection of them. But he had clearly never seen this one before. Magistrate Wang wasn't stupid; he wasn't afraid of ordinary people, but he would definitely investigate the other party's identity before taking any action.
"Brother Wang, I've been watching this woman for a long time. She came to Yancheng all by herself and even bought a shop. No man was with her. She was heavily pregnant when she first arrived, but now her child is over a month old. I saw her again today, and you wouldn't believe how beautiful she is even more than before she had the baby. She's absolutely stunning!"
Upon hearing this, Magistrate Wang became even more interested.
"Have you checked her background?"
"Her background must be ordinary. If she came from a well-off family, why would she come here alone while heavily pregnant?"
"By the way, the Fu'an ointment from a while back was sold in the shop she took over. Brother Wang, you know the effects of that ointment. If you get this woman, the formula for the ointment will naturally be..."
As the top official in Yancheng, Magistrate Wang was certainly very concerned about external affairs. He also knew about Fu'an Ointment from Fu'an Hall and had even sent someone to buy some. Its effects were indeed excellent.
but……
He looked at Fatty Liu suspiciously: "Fatty Liu, what you're saying isn't right. You said that if I get her, I'll also get the formula for Fu'an Ointment. But if I have the formula, why would I need your ointment? You'll lose a lot of money."
The two were in cahoots; who didn't know the other? Wang Xianling naturally knew Liu Pangzi's character; he wasn't the kind of person who would do such a losing business.
"Haha, Brother Wang, that's why I came to see you today. With such a stunning beauty, only you are qualified to enjoy her. However, although the formula for this Fu'an Ointment is excellent, its production will definitely be troublesome. You'll have to find someone to produce it, which is a lot of trouble. Why not let me do it? I don't ask for much, just a sip of the broth will be enough!"
