Ren Yaoqi shook his head: "This doctor has a good reputation and she can't bribe him, so the illness is real. But the illness is indeed a bit strange."
"What should we do? Tell grandma to take her back for treatment?" Ren Yaohua frowned.
Ren Yaoqi shook his head: "It's just a minor illness now. What if she gets worse if we take her back? Let her stay and find someone to look after her."
Ren Yaohua nodded and sneered, "I'd like to see what she's up to. I'll have someone keep an eye on her."
So, Ren Yaoying stayed in the Ren family's old house in Baihe Town, while Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua returned to Yunyang City.
After Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua returned, they went to visit Ren Yaoyu.
Although Ren Yaoyu was awake, she was skin and bones due to the damage she sustained during the previous poisoning and the long period of unconsciousness she had spent lying in bed. The baby fat that had plagued her and Mrs. Ren Wu for years was gone. Furthermore, because she hadn't moved for so long, her bones and flesh seemed to have rusted, leaving her unable to move freely, unable to even walk or eat on her own.
Seeing Ren Yaoyu, who always acted arrogantly in front of them, become like this, Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua felt a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, Ren Yaoyu woke up. The doctor said that if she didn't wake up now, she would never wake up again.
After a while, news came from Kyoto that the Ren family's business in the capital had run into serious problems.
For unknown reasons, the second old man of the Ren family mortgaged most of his coal mines and coal warehouses to a large money house in Kyoto, and obtained the operating rights of coal warehouses in six southeastern states. However, when the deadline came, they could not come up with the money to redeem the property. In the end, the Ren family's property fell into the hands of others inexplicably.
Ren Yaoqi learned all this from Master Ren San. Although Master Ren San spoke simply, Ren Yaoqi understood it clearly. He was afraid that Ren Yongxiang had fallen into someone else's trap.
Mr. Ren Er was now anxiously taking his son to various places to try to curry favor with people and use his connections to file a complaint against the bank for fraud against the government. He also wrote a letter asking for help from Mr. Ren Er.
Old Master Ren was so angry that he almost vomited blood again when he knew that Ren Yongxiang had secretly mortgaged the Ren family's property without his consent and was deceived by others in order to obtain the management rights of the six southeastern states.
Old Master Ren was also anxious. He naturally didn't want the Ren family's assets to fall into someone else's hands, but he was powerless to do anything about it. Old Master Ren asked Old Madam Ren to write a letter to Old Madam Fang, asking for help. Although Fang Yacun had lost power, the Fang family had not yet collapsed, and the Fang family and Ren family's in-laws still had a close relationship.
It’s a pity that the Fang family can’t do anything about this matter.
However, the matter was not over yet. Not long after, the remaining properties in Ren Yongxiang's hands were divided up by the creditors who came one after another.
It turns out that Ren Yongxiang and his son, unbeknownst to Old Master Ren, had been secretly collaborating with others to seize the entire market in the six southeastern states, previously controlled by the Wan Family Coal Depot. The Wan Family Coal Depot was the premier coal depot in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and displacing the Wan Family had long been Old Master Ren's wish. If he could swallow up the Wan Family's coal depots in the southeast, this wish might not be impossible to achieve. Ren Yongxiang had originally thought he could accomplish what his brother Ren Yonghe had failed, allowing the Ren Family to flourish under his own hands, but he never expected this outcome.
