Chapter 98 The plan failed
"Sister Jiang, you are so smart!" Chu Mingyu really admired Jiang Tangtang.
Although she is young, her father has an only daughter, and he has trained her as the successor since she was a child. She has been influenced by him for many years.
But as for these novel business models that Jiang Tangtang mentioned, she had never heard of them and had never thought about them in that direction.
Jiang Tangtang was humble and offered some suggestions.
When the two of them had almost finished their discussion, Lu Shili came back and Jiang Tangtang took the opportunity to say goodbye.
Chu Mingyu originally wanted to keep the two of them for lunch, but when Jiang Tangtang said she was going to buy materials for scented candles, he didn't try to persuade her to stay.
After leaving Jiuxia Silver Shop, Jiang Tangtang took Lu Shili to buy beeswax and other materials.
While the two were busy buying ingredients, the waiter at Baiweizhai also reported Jiang Tangtang's whereabouts to Manager Song.
After hearing about Jiang Tangtang's whereabouts, Shopkeeper Song was very confused. "Are you sure she's buying beeswax?"
The waiter said, "I was afraid I was mistaken. After she left, I went to ask the shopkeeper, and he said she was indeed buying beeswax. I heard she bought quite a lot! She went to several shops and bought all the beeswax on the market."
Shopkeeper Song frowned. Could he be wrong? Was Jiang's unwillingness to continue cooperating not out of spite, but because they had other plans?
Shopkeeper Song said, "Go prepare a generous gift, and I will go to the Lu family in person."
Shopkeeper Song's son, Song Wenfu, heard this and asked in confusion, "Dad, don't you know that Jiang is in the East Market? Why don't you go directly to the East Market to find her instead of going to the countryside?"
Shopkeeper Song glanced at his son with a look of dismay and said, "Wouldn't that be telling her directly that we're sending someone to keep an eye on her?"
Song Wenfu touched his nose awkwardly.
Shopkeeper Song said, "Alright, stop standing there. Go change your clothes and come with me to apologize to Jiang later."
"I'm not going!" said Song Wenfu.
"Have you figured out how to make egg yolk pastry?" Shopkeeper Song glared at his son unhappily.
Thinking about how he had tried countless methods but failed to make the egg yolk pastry, Song Wenfu suddenly lost his temper.
Shopkeeper Song said, "Since you can't do it, then just follow me obediently."
"Dad plans to buy a house from her?" Song Wenfu asked.
Shopkeeper Song nodded.
Song Wenfu asked, "Why didn't Dad buy it from her earlier? If I go to buy it now, will she be able to sell it?"
"You don't understand. This is a good time."
Shopkeeper Song called his son over, whispered a few words to him, and then went to Zhounanzhuang with the gifts.

As soon as Jiang Tangtang and Lu Shili arrived home, Manager Song came to visit with his son.
Seeing Jiang Tangtang, Shopkeeper Song hurriedly took the gifts off the carriage and apologized repeatedly, "Master Jiang, I'm so sorry. My son is ignorant and made some snacks and went out to fool around behind my back. Please be magnanimous and don't make a fuss about it."
He was about to kick and hit Song Wenfu, angrily scolding him, "Why don't you apologize to the Jiangdong family now? Who allowed you to act on your own initiative and fool around outside?"
Jiang Tangtang didn't try to stop him. She waited until Shopkeeper Song was in such a state that he had no choice but to hit Song Wenfu a few times before she pretended to persuade him, "Shopkeeper Song, you're too kind. The fact that you were able to make those little snacks just by looking at them shows that you're smart. You should be praised, but there's no need to apologize."
Shopkeeper Song said, "How can that be possible? If he does this, won't he ruin Baiweizhai's reputation?"
He looked extremely ashamed and said, "How about this, Jiang Dongjia, you name a price and sell me all the prescriptions at once. That way I'll feel better."
Jiang Tangtang sneered inwardly.
I'm afraid this is the main purpose of his coming today!
He clearly wanted to buy her prescription, but he acted like he was considering her and giving her alms.
"I'm just a farmer, I can't really be called a boss, Shopkeeper Song, please stop harassing me."
Jiang Tangtang said, "As for the recipe, your young master is very clever and figured it out on his own. What's there to be upset about? Shopkeeper Song, please go back! I won't see you off."
After saying that, Jiang Tangtang was too lazy to argue with him anymore and turned back to her room.
Lu Shili kicked the gift box on the ground and spat, "Take your broken things back, we don't want them!"
"You--" Song Wenfu was not as cunning as his father. He couldn't stand it on the spot and wanted to fight with him, but was stopped by Manager Song.
"Let's go!" Shopkeeper Song glanced at Lu Shiyan standing under the eaves and said with a serious look.
"Dad!" Song Wenfu wanted to speak, but under the threat of Shopkeeper Song's eyes, he had to shut up reluctantly.
After getting on the carriage, Song Wenfu said, "Dad, why did you hold me back just now? He's just a criminal from a family of exiles, and he really thinks he's so important!"
"You've never beaten him!" Shopkeeper Song said, "That guy goes hunting in the woods every day. Our restaurant alone has taken in four wild boars from him, not to mention the others."
What frightened him most was the man with a cane under the eaves.
The man was obviously disabled and just stood there without saying anything, but he just glanced at him lightly, and he felt as if he was being stared at by the god of death, and his hair stood on end.
At this moment, he suddenly began to doubt whether he had done something wrong!
He shouldn't be greedy for the high profits and let his son do that.
Shopkeeper Song told his son, "Forget it. Don't bother them for now. Just try making the egg yolk pastry. If you really can't make it, that's fine. We run a restaurant, and our main focus is on the restaurant's dishes."
Song Wenfu, however, didn't listen to Shopkeeper Song's words at all. He was furious. Not only did he go for nothing and not buy the prescription, but he was also insulted. He had never suffered such a loss in his life.
Sooner or later, he will get back this face.
"Oh! Why is this good thing thrown on the ground? If you don't want it, I will pick it up!" Ge Shuanniang was hiding in the dark and watching, but when she saw there was a bargain to be picked up, she couldn't help it and ran out quickly. She grabbed the gift box on the ground and wanted to take it home.
"Don't move!" Jiang Tangtang looked at her coldly.
"You just threw it on the ground and said you don't want it anymore." Ge Shuanniang was a little scared, but also a little reluctant, holding the gift box tightly and refusing to let go.
"Even if you don't want it, it won't be cheap for you!" Jiang Tangtang said: "Shi Li, go get the things back."
Lu Shili was still angry at this moment, with a very sour face. He went over and pulled the gift box back from Ge Shuanniang's hand, then returned to the house with a cold face.
Ge Shuanniang was heartbroken, but she thought that as long as she got information about Jiang Tangtang, she could go to Jiang Caiwei and exchange it for favors. She quickly suppressed her heartache and went to find Jiang Tangtang to inquire, "Madam Lu, who was that just now? Did you break up?"
"Does it have anything to do with you?" Jiang Tangtang said bluntly, "You're really meddling in other people's affairs!"
