Chapter 494: Duan's Death

"One hundred and fifty taels and sixty-two copper plates."

"One hundred and fifty taels and sixty-five copper plates."

"One hundred and fifty taels and sixty-seven copper plates."

After counting the last copper plate, Jiang Fubao was stunned.

Is it so profitable to open a clinic?

Excluding the cost of the medicinal materials, the wages she promised to pay to the servants, and the money for buying vegetables and condiments, she could earn at least eighty or ninety taels.

No, I didn’t spend any money on the medicinal herbs.

Good job, you made more money.

"Xuehuan, your lady is going to get rich." Jiang Fubao's eyes were full of stars, and her mouth was almost stretched to her ears.

"Miss, you have never been poor. Just look at how much money Master Meng gave you for your birthday party." Xue Huan put the washbasin on the shelf. While speaking, she walked to the bedside and helped Jiang Fubao change clothes.

"That's different. This is money I made myself, so it has a different meaning. But yesterday was the first day of business, so it's normal to make a lot. Many people came to support us because of my godfather. There should be fewer people today, but even if I only make ten taels a day, it's still a lot. Think about it, if I make ten taels a day, how much can I make in a month? And in a year?"

Jiang Fubao didn't dare to think about it.

After thinking about it, she even felt that the ten thousand taels were just around the corner.

"Then I wish Miss to earn more money." Xue Huan's voice was soft.

She squatted on the ground to put shoes on Jiang Fubao, looking very well-behaved.

"Okay, when I make a lot of money in the future, I will take you to the imperial city for a trip! Then we can eat and drink delicious food." Jiang Fubao pinched Xue Huan's chubby face, and she lifted her sleeves to brush her teeth and wash her face.

"Young lady is the best to me. I don't know which one is more fun, the Imperial City or Jiangnan City?" Xue Huan's eyes were a little empty. She was recalling her previous trip to Jiangnan.

"I don't know. I've never been there either. When I grow up, I want to visit not only the Imperial City but the entire Tianling Kingdom." Jiang Fubao was brushing his teeth and his words were a little unclear, but Xue Huan could understand him.

"Tianling Kingdom? It's so big. We'll have to play here for a long time. Will the old lady be angry?" Xue Huan came back to her senses and saw Jiang Fubao rinsing his mouth after brushing his teeth. She held the spittoon to Jiang Fubao's chin and asked her to spit out the mouthwash in her mouth.

"Well, if grandma is angry, I will take her to play with me, and then take grandpa with me. No, I have to take mom and dad with me, otherwise dad will cry."

Jiang Fubao thought more and more, even when he was washing his face, he was still thinking about going out for a trip as a family in a horse-drawn carriage.

It’s better to sit separately.

The master and servant here are chatting happily.

In the backyard of the Shen family opposite the Jiang residence, Shen Hechi had a strange expression on his face. He said to the servant in front of him in a cold voice: "Are you sure she is really dead? Not faking her death?"

"To answer your question, young master, when I went there, Mrs. Duan had already died. There were corpse spots on her body. She must have been dead for some time. It couldn't be false. If it weren't for the cold weather, the body would have already started to stink. After the old master knew about this, he asked me to take care of Mrs. Duan's funeral. Duan has now been buried." The servant replied.

"Where is Duan buried?" Shen Hechi continued to ask.

"......"

"Ancestral tomb." The servant hesitated for a while before uttering two words.

Shen Hechi's hands clenched instantly, and the veins on his forehead throbbed wildly.

Those beautiful eyes actually held a hint of horror.

"Ancestral tomb? Haha, okay, I get it. You can go down. Remember, we haven't seen it today." Shen Hechi sneered, turned around and left.

He poisoned that bastard Duan.

It was exactly the same poison that my mother had been poisoned with, and sure enough, Duan also died.

According to the servant's description just now, before Duan's death, it was as if the oil had run out and the lamp had gone out, just like before my mother's death.

Shen Hechi was not happy at all after personally getting rid of the murderer of his mother.

"Enter the ancestral tomb? Haha, you are really infatuated, then you shouldn't be separated from each other!" Shen Hechi returned to the house, he muttered to himself, his eyes full of resentment and viciousness.

The school is closed for three days and today is only the second day, but Shen Hechi doesn't want to stay any longer.

He packed his clothes and left.

But at the gate, he met Jiang Fubao.

"Fubao, where are you going?" The last time they met was during the Chinese New Year. When he saw Jiang Fubao, Shen Hechi's frozen face began to soften a little.

Become soft.

"I'm going to the clinic? The clinic opened yesterday." Jiang Fubao stopped, raised his head, and looked at him blankly.

"Opened? Fubao, why didn't you tell me..." Shen Hechi drooped his lips, looking a little aggrieved.

"No, Brother Bujiu told me that you were going to join them in the imperial examination this autumn, so I didn't bother you. Besides, I run a clinic, not a restaurant or wine shop, so it's useless to tell you. How can I invite people to come to the clinic to show their support, right? It's so unlucky."

Jiang Fubao quickly explained.

After being together for a long time, she always saw the shadow of her father in Shen Hechi.

Afraid of saying something wrong, Shen Hechi burst into tears in front of her.

She is not good at coaxing people.

The most annoying thing is that the man cries.

Of course, except for my biological father.

"I see. I'm relieved. I thought Sister Fubao was getting distant with me. I will definitely work hard to get into high school this autumn exam. Sister Fubao, if I pass the exam, can I take you to Jiangnan for some fun? I'm more familiar with that place. Don't get me wrong. You can bring Xuehuan or your sisters... brothers."

Shen Hechi became irritable for as long as Meng Bujiu took Jiang Fubao to Jiangnan for fun.

He hesitated for a while, and finally asked.

"Forget it. I've been there before. It's pointless to go right now. If you feel tired from studying and want to go out and play, wait until you and Brother Bujiu graduate from high school. Then we can go to the Imperial City together. I've never been there before."

Jiang Fubao refused.

Why did she go to Jiangnan with Shen Hechi for no reason?

We are not related at all, so gossip will spread later.

"Okay, alright." Shen Hechi was a little disappointed.

However, he soon became happy again when he thought about going to the imperial city with Jiang Fubao.

"I'm going to the clinic." Jiang Fubao looked at the sun and it was getting late.

"Okay, then I'll go back to school too." Shen Hechi smiled and watched her leave.

When Jiang Fubao's back disappeared, the smile on his face also disappeared.

When he returned to the school, he found Meng Bujiu reading in the room, and he suddenly felt that a crisis was coming.

"Brother Meng, why don't you go back?" Shen Hechi asked him.

"I have to take the exam soon. If I don't work hard, how can I get into high school?" Although Meng Bujiu didn't like Shen Hechi, he still responded when Shen Hechi spoke to him.

"Brother Meng, if you pass the exam, will you go to the spring examination?" Shen Hechi asked again.

"Go." Meng Bujiu didn't even raise his head.

He turned a page of the book and read it carefully.

"Okay." Shen Hechi narrowed his eyes slightly. After he finished speaking, he put down the bag in his hand and sat down to read the book together.

The two never spoke again.
