Indeed, outside the imperial capital, the Meng family's reputation is far less than that of the Mu family and the Nie family, and ordinary people don't know about it.
In fact, it is not as good as the fifth one.
As the number of fortune tellers gradually decreased, the Fifth Family turned to business as early as the late twentieth century.
Although it is not as good as the Mu family, it also has a solid foundation.
After all, the family history of the fifth family can be traced back to the Tang Dynasty.
The reason why Diwu Shaoxian had such a great talent for fortune-telling was because his ancestors had been fortune-telling for the royal disciples in the Forbidden City.
To the outside world, the Meng family is a family of traditional Chinese medicine.
However, only those who have truly come into contact with the Meng family know that even though the Meng family’s history is far inferior to these families, its strength is terrifyingly stronger.
An ancient doctor must be protected by an ancient warrior.
A powerful ancient warrior can directly sweep away a large family in an ordinary secular world.
This is also why the big families are committed to finding ancient warriors.
With ancient warriors in charge, what is there to be afraid of?
Mu Chenzhou didn't know about the existence of ancient doctors, so he always felt that the Meng family was no match for the Mu family.
But he had heard from Madam Mu that Mu Heqing's illness was entirely cured by the careful treatment of the miracle doctors of the Meng family.
This is no secret in the Mu family.
As long as Mu Heqing is here, the Mu family will not fall.
Therefore, every member of the Mu family is in awe of the members of the Meng family.
Mu Chenzhou felt more and more that Ying Zijin really had no vision, and he became even more disappointed.
Even the Mu family would not compete with the Meng family for things. Whatever the Meng family needs should be prepared.
Go grab the rare tulip varieties that Mengjia has reserved?
Isn't this just cutting off your own retreat?
All members of the Meng family are doctors, and they are spread across major hospitals across the country and even the world.
If you offend the Meng family, no one will treat you when you are sick in the future.
It was because Mu Chenzhou knew this truth that he asked Ying Zijin to give up the item.
This is a reminder and advice to her.
None of the guests in the ballroom had expected something like this to happen in the middle of the auction.
The person who spoke was Mu Chenzhou, the legitimate son of the Mu family.
In an instant, all eyes were focused on the girl holding the sign.
With inquiry, surprise, and a bit of scrutiny.
Zhong Manhua didn't go to see it.
Her fingers clenched the bag in her hand, and a strong feeling of embarrassment surged to her head, making it difficult for her to breathe.
The reason why she would rather give Ying Zijin a glass of juice with sleeping pills in it than take Ying Zijin to the banquet was because of this situation.
Now, look what happened. Not only has he brought shame upon himself in the wealthy circles of Shanghai, but he has also brought shame upon himself in front of several young masters and daughters of the imperial capital.
It took a long time for Zhong Manhua to catch her breath.
Her original decision was not wrong. The eldest daughter of the Ying family could only be Ying Yuexuan.
"Mu Chenzhou, that's hilarious." In the silence, Ying Tianlu stood up and said, "I would like to ask what right do you have to terminate the auction?"
His eyes were cold and chilly: "If I remember correctly, even your invitation was not given by Mr. Mu. You don't allow others to attend. Who do you think you are?"
When these words came out, the guests were all shocked.
The people who came to this dance were all from wealthy families, and they all knew Mu Chenzhou's identity.
The Mu family in the imperial capital!
So even though he didn't organize this dance party, on the surface, everyone regarded him as half the organizer.
“Tianlu!” Zhong Manhua’s face also changed, but with so many people around, she couldn’t speak loudly, so she could only grit her teeth and lower her voice, “Tianlu, you’re crazy!”
It is true that the Ying family is one of the four wealthy families, but how can they compare with the Mu family?
If the Ying family offends the Mu family, what kind of business achievements can they achieve in the future?
The Mu family can block the Ying family's path with just a few words.
Mu Chenzhou was also slightly stunned for a moment, but soon regained his composure: "My invitation was indeed not given by my grandfather. I got it with my own ability."
Ying Tianlu's eyebrows were slightly sharp and he sneered.
He, who has always been elegant and noble, also directly used swear words: "Then what you said is bullshit."
The guests were whispering.
Mu Chenzhou pursed his lips.
Beside him, the man finally responded.
There seemed to be a hint of smile in her eyes, but it was not visible.
He took a sip of tea slowly before speaking, his voice as clear as pearls, pleasant to the ear: "I'm sorry, I just want this rare flower seed so badly."
"But I didn't have that much money with me at the time, so I had to ask this lady to withdraw from the auction and let it go with great pain."
"Afterwards, the Meng family will give you a free visit, without charging any fees."
Zhong Manhua looked up suddenly, with a moment of surprise.
She had been asking Mrs. Tomu to contact the Meng family, but the Meng family never came.
Now that there is such a good opportunity in front of us, we must not miss it.
Madam Ying’s headache cannot be treated without further delay.
"She will withdraw from the auction." Zhong Manhua straightened her clothes, stood up, and smiled at the man. "She doesn't know anything about flowers. It would be a waste to sell her. I will give her to you, sir."
After that, she turned around and called out gently, "Zijin, please agree. If you want flowers, I will buy you a lot of pots when I go back. Okay?"
One flower in exchange for a free visit to Meng's home.
"Mrs. Ying is really interesting. She's playing the kinship card now." Fu Yunshen's eyelashes moved, and he chuckled, his tone cold, "Do you need me to remind you again--"
"Yaoyao's household registration has been moved out of the Ying family. She is no longer a member of your Ying family. How can you still call yourself a mother? Did you not take your medicine before going out today?"
Ying Zijin propped up his head with one hand, his pupils as bright as snow, and said in a cold tone: "It's hard to say if you eat too much."
Zhong Manhua couldn't believe it.
It was as if he had been punched from the air, and even the blood on his lips had faded away completely.
She heard the ladies around her who were on good terms with her whispering and looking up at her.
"Hey, so they didn't get kicked out, but left on their own? Then Madam Ying, you are really talking nonsense."
"Forget it, I'm used to it. Manhua, you always value face, so it's normal for you to tell lies."
"But Manhua, you... you are not her mother anymore. How could you say that just now?"
Zhong Manhua's ears were buzzing and she could hardly stand.
His face turned blue and then white.
She has always been very concerned about her reputation and has always been an elegant lady in front of and behind others.
How could someone say that?
Ying Yuexuan hurriedly helped her sit down: "Mom, drink some hot water."
Zhong Manhua was cold all over, her fingers were shaking, and her throat was dry: "Your sister...your sister is simply..."
Ying Yuexuan frowned: "Mom, isn't it true that the highest bidder wins at an auction? And my sister was the first to see that tulip. Since she's rich and her bid is high, it's hers."
"Where does she get the money?" Zhong Manhua's chest rose and fell as she sneered, "Look who she's with? Fu Yunshen!"
"She sold herself out when someone gave her some money. Do you think she still earned it herself?"
She has never given Ying Zijin a card. Even Ying Yuexuan doesn’t have a million in pocket money, so how could Ying Zijin have it?
Ying Yuexuan stopped talking.
The man who spoke earlier frowned and looked at Mu Chenzhou.
Mu Chenzhou shook his head: "The Ying family's affairs are a bit complicated."
The man thought about it for a moment, then stopped asking and just said, "You have to get it today."
"I will give it to you." Mu Chenzhou nodded, "She is young and naive, I hope you won't bother with her."
These words were spoken by Ying Zijin.
"Oh?" The man's smile deepened, "Of course I won't bother with a little girl."
Even if the people here know medicine, they cannot tell that this tulip is actually a very precious medicinal herb, Ganoderma lucidum.
Only ancient doctors knew how to use Snow Ganoderma.
If placed in an ordinary person's home, it is indeed a very ornamental flower.
Mu Chenzhou breathed a sigh of relief and signaled to the auctioneer on the stage: "Start again."
The auctioneer originally came from the imperial capital, so naturally he would not offend Mu Chenzhou and the Meng family.
"I'll buy it for you." Mu Chenzhou said, holding up his card, "Fifty thousand."
The auctioneer brought down the hammer very quickly, fearing that the item might be snatched away.
The man's slightly frowned brows slowly relaxed.
But just before the auctioneer dropped the hammer for the third time, a lazy, slow voice sounded.
"Five million."
“…”
The whole place was dead silent.
"or--"
Fu Yunshen tilted his head, and his handsome face was instantly revealed to everyone, it was no exaggeration to say that he was so stunning.
His tone was as lazy as ever, but listening carefully, it was cold: "You can also ask me not to participate in this auction."
Mu Chenzhou's expression became completely ugly and his lips were pursed even tighter.
The man next to him also stopped smiling and looked towards the source of the sound for the first time.
Upon seeing this, his eyes narrowed instantly.
