"Young Master, Qi Canglan has already taken care of the food issue."
"Where did he buy the food?"
"I heard it was from the young lady in Mr. Fang's house."
“It’s her…”
"Young Master, now that the food issue has been resolved, are you heading south now?"
"Let's set off tomorrow."
At the Fang Mansion, Fang Wenhai returned safely. Although he looked a little haggard, not a single hair had fallen out of his body.
Even so, Mrs. Fang couldn't help but cry when she saw her husband Ping An walk into the house.
"Madam, I'm sorry to have worried you." Mrs. Fang wiped away her tears with a smile, and immediately ordered the servants to prepare the bath water, so that Fang Wenhai could use the mugwort water to wash away the bad luck.
At night, the wealthy Fang Wenhai took out another 10,000 taels of silver to thank Xu Ning and others.
However, the most shocked person was not Xu Ning and others, but Qi Canglan.
It turned out that Fang Wenhai actually planned to pass on all the family business to him.
What was even more shocking was that Qi Canglan refused.
Fang Wenhai seemed to have known Qi Canglan would refuse. "Xiao Lan, don't be so hasty to refuse. Now that you've been expelled from the Qi family, you need support. Although the Fang family is a merchant family, they also have a say."
Especially since Fang Wenhai was able to escape unscathed this time, those merchants who wanted to do something secretly will think twice.
"Uncle Fang, thank you." Qi Canglan's eyes were full of gratitude. He did not hide it from Fang Wenhai and his wife. "Uncle Fang, Aunt Su, don't worry about me. My business boss is of noble status. They can't embarrass me."
"That's good! That's good!" Fang Wenhai's face was full of relief, but it was a pity that he didn't have the chance to have such a good seedling.
Xu Ning ate her fill of melon and vegetables, and she, always grateful for the food she had eaten, offered some words of comfort: "Master Fang, Master Qi is capable, and the Qi family is blind. They will regret it later! However, regret is useless."
Qi Canglan is from Jiangyan, and those people in the Qi family probably don’t have the courage to cause trouble again.
Qi Canglan was able to escape from the Qi family so quickly today, and Jiang Yan’s hand in this must have been indispensable.
"Miss Xu is right. It's a great day. Let's not talk about this anymore. A'lan, eat more. Business is hard work!" Mrs. Fang picked up two chopsticks of food for Qi Canglan and two chopsticks for Xu Ning as well, insisting on not favoring one over the other.
Xu Ning thought about it, then followed suit and picked up the serving chopsticks to pick up two pieces for Xu Feng and Pei Chen.
Xu Feng, Pei Chen: ...
Liu Li ate without even raising his head, muttering in his heart that the Qi family would regret it so much in the future.
"Miss Xu, are you going back to the south tomorrow? Why don't you stay for two more days?" After dinner, Xu Ning told her that she was planning to go back.
Today, Liu Li has handed over the matters to Qi Canglan and left two special carrier pigeons for communication, which are said to be given by Qi Canglan's master.
"Master Fang, you know, my sister left for something on the way. First, I have to go find her first. Second, it's very close to the Chinese New Year, and my family is worried about whether we can go back early to celebrate the New Year. But don't worry, I will come to Beicheng to see you again when it gets warmer in the spring next year." Ever since Old Lady Xu knew that Xu Ning and his sister had arrived in Beicheng and sold all the grain, she began to urge them to come back three times a day.
Early this morning, a light snow had begun to fall in the north city. Xu Ning is a southerner who is afraid of the cold. He has been away from home for more than a month and misses his family in Xianyu Village very much.
In addition, the weather in the North City was getting colder, and Xu Ning had no plans to stay and shop any longer, because the things Mrs. Fang had stuffed into her filled several carriages.
These things were prepared by Madam Fang as soon as she returned home. Xu Ning thought that the carriage would be a little emptier when she returned, but it turned out that she was overthinking it.
"Alan, if you meet Miss Xu on the road, remember to take good care of her."
