Nanzhi arrived at the Song family pharmacy without stopping.
Song Hanyan followed behind her, feeling incredibly proud to see his wife making money and even owning her own restaurant.
The wind stirred up by people walking around became much stronger.
Song Xian had just finished getting ready and was about to drive the carriage when he suddenly saw Nan Zhi coming over, so he quickly got off the carriage.
"Girl, girl."
Nanzhi turned her head and looked at him as if she had seen a lifeline.
"How is Manager Song's health?"
Song Xian: "Me."
Nan Zhi asked earnestly, "Is there anything wrong? How have you been lately, young master? Have you been mischievous?"
"No, I..."
This kind of care almost made Song Xian have other ideas, such as whether Nanzhi was his daughter who had been living among the common people.
Fortunately, he has always maintained a clean and upright character; otherwise, we would really have to investigate him thoroughly.
"Or, has the person who buys medicinal herbs arrived yet?"
Song Xian: So everything before was just a setup, and this last sentence is what you really care about?
Nan Zhi earnestly invited the man to the backyard of the medicine shop and personally placed the tea in front of Song Xian.
Song Xian took a sip before realizing that this seemed to be his home.
This girl acted as if she were at home.
"Father, why are you back so soon?" Song Li entered.
Upon seeing Nanzhi, her eyes widened with joy, and she exclaimed, "It's you!"
Nanzhi glanced at it and turned her head away.
I don't know this narcissist.
Seeing this, Song Hanyan stepped forward and stood in front of Nanzhi, shielding her from view.
Song Li scratched his head: "I only remembered after the young lady left."
Nan Zhi said nonchalantly, "I am a married woman, so naturally I don't know the elegant and charming Young Master Song."
"Father, see? I wasn't wrong. Even Miss Nan thinks your son is elegant and handsome."
Song Xian took a deep breath. Damn it, this son is no good.
He practically gritted his teeth and said, "Get out!"
Under his father's angry gaze, Song Li left feeling wronged.
Nan Zhi thought to herself: Narcissism to a certain extent can really drive people crazy.
After watching his foolish son leave, Song Xian spoke carefully to Nan Zhi.
"Miss, the people who come to buy the medicinal herbs will arrive tomorrow. I have reserved a table at the No. 1 Restaurant in the world tomorrow, please do me the honor of joining us."
Song Xian originally wanted to consume the Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng, but his pharmacy had limited financial resources and couldn't afford them.
Nanzhi agreed.
However, traveling back and forth from the village to the county town is quite difficult, as the mountain roads are not easy to travel.
Every time she rides in a horse-drawn carriage, Nam Tze has to bring a thick cushion.
Within a day, Nanzhi decided to stay in the county.
So the two returned to the restaurant, and as soon as they reached the entrance, they heard a familiar voice from across the street.
Song Hanyan turned around: "Zhizhi, it's Uncle Sun."
A large crowd had already gathered in front of Juede Restaurant. With Song Hanyan blocking the way, Nanzhi squeezed her way to the front.
Sun Zheng stopped the waiter from Juede Restaurant, "What do you think you're doing in broad daylight!"
The servant paid him no attention whatsoever.
"Someone got sick from eating at the restaurant, and it was all your son's doing. The fact that you haven't beaten him to death is already a sign of the manager's mercy. Now get out of here!"
“My son wouldn’t do such a thing; something must be wrong.”
The other party scoffed, "Go to the yamen and talk to the magistrate. Men, throw him out!"
Sun Zheng was pushed and almost fell, but Song Hanyan quickly caught him.
Upon seeing him, Sun Zheng burst into tears.
Nanzhi led the person out, "Uncle Sun, what exactly happened?"
Sun Zheng: "Those people said that my son cooked bad food for the guests, and the guests got sick. Chen Quan's grandson sent my son to the county government and he's in jail now. But I know my son. He would never do such a despicable thing. It must be that unscrupulous businessman Chen Quan who harmed him."
Nanzhi comforted him, "Uncle Sun, how do you know it was Chen Quan who harmed your son?"
“It must be him,” Sun Zheng said with certainty. “My son had someone write a letter a few days ago, saying that Chen Quan of Juede Restaurant used expired ingredients to cook for customers. He had tried to persuade him several times, but Chen Quan wouldn’t listen. Now that something has happened, he’s using my son as a scapegoat.”
Nanzhi asked Cherry, "Is that so?"
Cherry nodded. "But there's more to the story."
Nanzhi: "What do you mean?"
Cherry: "Let's talk money."
Nanzhi:······
"Didn't it used to be free?"
Cherry: "The master also said that was before."
Inside the space, Nanzhi chuckled and gave Cherry a thumbs up.
"Well done."
So this is a world where money is everything, and she's the only one who's poor.
Nan Zhi found an inn near the restaurant, settled Sun Zheng in, and then returned to her own restaurant.
"Master, why are you back?" Liu Dezhi asked in surprise.
Nanzhi: "I'm not leaving tonight, I'll stay here."
Upon hearing this, Liu Dezhi immediately ordered people to clean the house.
"The main house has been empty for many years, just waiting for the master to return."
Nanzhi: "You didn't stay in the main house?"
Liu Dezhi said embarrassedly, "It's not that I don't want to stay, but the main room is on the top floor of the restaurant. As you can see, it's really inconvenient for me to go up and down."
Song Hanyan: "In that case, this superior room should not be used for anything other than cleaning."
Liu Dezhi glanced at Nanzhi and, seeing that she did not object, agreed.
Do you know about that chef at Ju De Restaurant?
Liu Dezhi knew, of course: "That was a big deal. I heard that the cook poisoned the son of the county magistrate."
Song Hanyan: "If the cook is arrested and taken to the county government office, will the magistrate's son still be alive?"
