Upon seeing this, Jiang Yuwei hurriedly ran towards the door, exclaiming in surprise:
"I'm not buying. You can sell it to whomever you want!"
Jiang Yuwei ran for a while and, seeing that the man hadn't caught up, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to go to Huichuntang to find Ning Huaizhi, a sedan chair stopped in front of her.
Jiang Yaoyao stepped slowly out of the sedan chair. The maidservant beside her, very perceptive, stepped forward to support her hand. Jiang Yaoyao looked up and glanced at Jiang Yuwei, then reached out to adjust the golden hairpin in her hair.
Jiang Yuwei found it somewhat amusing to look at her like this. Did all of Master Ge's women only know how to look down on people?
Jiang Yaoyao coughed a few times, raised an eyebrow, and looked at Jiang Yuwei with a disdainful expression, saying:
"What? You bought that shop facing the street? You're so happy?"
Jiang Yuwei frowned, inexplicably feeling that this matter was inextricably linked to the Ge family, so she simply followed Jiang Yaoyao's lead and spoke up:
"Yes, I bought it. It's just one shop, but I could buy ten shops if I wanted. I earn all my money cleanly, so I feel perfectly at ease using it!"
As Jiang Yuwei spoke, she looked Jiang Yaoyao up and down again and said calmly:
"Unlike some people who depend on men to live, whose dignity is given by men. In public, people call you 'girl,' but who knows what they say about you behind your back."
Upon hearing Jiang Yuwei's words, Jiang Yaoyao was furious. She turned and glared at the maid who was supporting her arm. The maid, seeing this, turned pale with fright.
"Girl, I, I didn't, I certainly didn't!"
Jiang Yaoyao flung the maid's hand away and shouted at her:
"Shut up!"
After saying that, he turned to look at Jiang Yuwei and said with a cold smile:
"Stop being so smug. You should use this time to check if the documents for buying the shop are real or fake. You've been cheated and you're still counting money for the person who cheated you."
Jiang Yuwei raised an eyebrow:
"What do you know about the authenticity of documents? I bought that shop with real money, how could the documents be fake!"
"Pah! What use is real gold and silver? The landlord of that shop hasn't come out since he went to the Ge residence yesterday. Hahaha, I don't know who you signed the contract with, you fool, and you even gave them all the money."
Jiang Yuwei suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. Master Ge has played a grand game. If it weren't for that fool Jiang Yaoyao answering my questions, I probably wouldn't have been able to figure out why the shop had changed owners. This Master Ge really wants to control everything in Ping'an Town, daring to kidnap people at the drop of a hat."
Jiang Yuwei really wanted to buy the shop. Now that she had raised the money, the owner was being controlled by someone. After thinking about it, Jiang Yuwei decided to help Lao Cao, since he wasn't a bad person. So she didn't want to argue with Jiang Yaoyao anymore and turned around and headed towards Huichuntang.
Jiang Yaoyao snorted coldly as she watched Jiang Yuwei's retreating figure.
"Hmph, still pretending to be rich in front of me, now I'll make sure you have nowhere to cry."
After saying that, Jiang Yaoyao flicked her sleeve and scolded the maid beside her:
"What are you standing there for? Go to the Ge residence!"
The maid trembled with fright and nodded repeatedly, instructing the sedan chair bearers to lift the sedan chair.
Inside the Huichun Hall
Ning Huaizhi had finished his acupuncture treatment, and Doctor Lin made minor adjustments to his seven-day prescription. He then gave Jiang Yuwei some instructions.
Jiang Yuwei quickly helped Ning Huaizhi onto the oxcart. Looking at Ning Huaizhi, who was drenched in sweat again, she said worriedly:
"Next time you come for acupuncture, I'll bring you some clothes so you don't catch a cold from the wind."
Ning Huaizhi and Jiang Yuwei smiled gently:
"It's alright, I'm in great health. By the way, did you manage to take over that shop?"
Jiang Yuwei shook her head and said in a deep voice:
"No, Lao Cao had a little trouble. I'll tell you when I get home. It's still early, let's go to the cloth shop and buy some fabric before we go home."
Seeing this, Ning Huaizhi didn't ask any further questions, but simply drove the oxcart to the cloth shop.
Jiang Yuwei got out of the car. She thought she should buy a piece of blue fabric to make a normal outfit for the mentally challenged man. It wouldn't look good if he always wore tattered clothes when she brought him to the market. So she first picked out a piece of blue fabric, and then went to choose a pink one. Jiang Yuwei thought she should also make a few more summer outfits for herself, so she picked out a few nice-looking floral fabrics so she could make matching outfits for herself and Ning Wan.
Jiang Yuwei thought that Ning Zhao and Ning Huaizhi didn't have many summer clothes, so she decided to buy them all today. She also remembered that Ning Daya always wore patched clothes, so she bought her a piece of fabric to give her later so she could make her own clothes.
After Jiang Yuwei quickly finished buying the items, she left the shop with them and urged Ning Huaizhi to hurry home as soon as she got on the oxcart.
The two hurried home before dark.
Jiang Yuwei didn't let Ning Huai get out of the car. She directly carried the fabric into the house and put it away. Then she went to the backyard to call Tie Zhu and Ning Wu to go to the front yard. She then went to the side room and called the idiot out.
"Silly boy, I'll take you to fight tonight, and I'll cook you something delicious when we get back, okay?"
The fool nodded repeatedly when he heard there was something delicious to eat.
Jiang Yuwei then looked at Tie Zhu and Ning Wu and said:
"I'm going to Ping'an Town tonight to rescue someone. It will be a bit dangerous. Would you two like to come with us? If you don't want to, I won't force you."
Tie Zhu spoke directly:
"Sister Yuwei, what are you saying? You've always treated us brothers so well. Now that you're in trouble, how can we cower like cowards?"
Ning Wu nodded in agreement and said:
"Yes, Sister Yuwei, we'll listen to you!"
Upon hearing this, Ning Daya, who was standing nearby, hurriedly said:
"Sister Yuwei, I can go too! I'll go with you all!"
Jiang Yuwei waved her hand and said:
"You don't need to go. You stay home, take care of the house and the two children, and cook meals for us when we come back."
Just as Ning Daya was about to speak, Tie Zhu turned around, glanced at her, and smiled:
"Da Ya, stay home and wait for us."
Upon hearing Tie Zhu's words, Ning Daya blushed, lowered her head, and whispered:
"Okay, you must be careful. I'll wait for you to come back."
Jiang Yuwei rummaged through the warehouse and found some ropes, which she threw onto the car. She also prepared a lantern to use when walking back at night, as she didn't want to walk in the dark again.
Jiang Yuwei prepared a lot of mud bombs and handed them to Ning Huaizhi. She also took out a set of bows and arrows and put them on the cart for her own use. Then she prepared a dagger for Ning Wu, Tie Zhu and the idiot and put it on their waists. She also prepared some chili water for Tie Zhu to use in case of an emergency escape.
Jiang Yuwei also took out the sleeping potion that she had asked Doctor Lin to make at Huichuntang that afternoon and distributed it to the three of them. She also taught them how to use it before letting everyone get on the oxcart and starting their journey to the Ge residence.
