“Ouch~”

As he was applying the dicine, Jia Zhen suddenly straightened his back from the bed and cursed angrily, covering the bruise on his forehead. "You can’t even apply the dicine well. What's the use of you? Get out of here, get out of here!”

The skin has already broken; how could it be painless when applying dicine?

Although You-Shi felt aggrieved in her heart, she had long been accustod to being treated like this by Jia Zhen, so she hurriedly placed the dicine bottle in her hand by the bedside and then bowed out.

Clash!

As soon as she stepped out of the door, she heard a crisp sound coming from inside.

Looking back, Jia Zhen swept the dicine bottle onto the ground, gritting his teeth and roaring, "This matter can't just be done! Rong’er, you should imdiately take the You family mother and daughter to our mansion. Tonight, I will gather those two little hooves together to see if Sun Erlang still has the face.”

“This…”

As soon as Jia Rong showed a hint of embarrassnt, Jia Zhen hit the pillow with her hand, hitting it right on his forehead and cursing in his mouth, "What a little beast! Are you going to disobey ?”

Jia Rong was beaten, but he didn't dare to reach out to cover. He quickly knelt on the ground and said, "It's not that I refused to obey. It's really because Sun Shaozong is very cunning. I'm afraid he might have been guarding against our move at the mont. If he accidentally caught us, wouldn't it be extrely bad?”

Jia Zhen glared like a toad and said, "So, according to you, we can’t take revenge?”

“No, no, no; what I ant was that we should consider the long term and think of other ways.”

As Jia Rong was speaking, a sudden flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he exclaid, "Yes, yes! Let's try to bribe that Zhang Hua and let him accuse Sun Shaozong, who bullies others and forcibly seizes others' won.”

“Forcible seizure of won?”

Jia Zhen repeated the words in his mouth several tis and frowned, "But hasn't Zhang Hua already written down the official certificate of resignation? If we go to file a lawsuit now, I'm afraid we won't be able to file it.”

“The lawsuit can’t be brought out, but as long as there is so noise and rumors spread, it is not difficult to damage Sun Shaozong's reputation.”

It has to be said that Jia Rong really has so potential as a stupid military strategist.

But You-Shi listened truthfully outside, but she was in a dilemma. At first, she had the intention to secretly inform Sun Shaozong of this matter, which could be considered as a ”One-night stand.”

But after a few twists of thought in her heart, her enthusiasm gradually dissipated, especially when it ca to Jia Zhen's usual cruel thods of punishing won, which made her unable to muster any more courage.

In the end, what You-Shi craved in his heart was only the joy of sex, not any relationship with Sun Shaozong.

Forget it~

Let nature take its course.

With such thoughts in mind, she went back to her room and, slightly irritable, drove out all the maids. It was like a quiet and peaceful person, but suddenly a ridiculous idea ca to her mind. If Sun was assassinated, would he beco angry and co to vent his anger on Jia Zhen's people around him?

Fantasizing Sun Shaozong, as described in the storybook, riding over the wall and window in the night, You-Shi couldn't help but feel overwheld for a mont. She lifted her legs high as if soone were holding them.

In the front courtyard of Rongguo Mansion, Sun Shaozong and Li Wan's eyes t each other like magnets, both of whom had feelings and imaginations in their hearts.

After the matter with Jia Lian, Sun Shaozong politely refused Old Lady Jia's stay and prepared to return to Wangjiang Tower to et Feng Ziying, Liu Xianglian, and others.

Who knew that as soon as he walked out, not too far, he heard soone behind him exclaim, "Lord Sun, did you see my Lan’er?”

When looking back, who else could it be if it wasn't Li Wan?

Upon eting Li Wan’s hot and burning gaze, Sun Shaozong felt a little restless and quickly bent over to hide, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. Lan’er went with Brother Bao and didn't encounter any danger. He should have gone back to rest by now.”

“Amitabha Buddha.”

Li Wan recited the scripture and lightly pounded her chest with her hand. Was there a trembling movent that a Buddhist disciple could see?

Sun Shaozong couldn't tell for a mont whether it was intentional or unintentional. However, he knew that she didn’t dare to show any signs of weakness in front of others, so he quickly and solemnly said, "Sister-in-law, Lan’er is smart and clever. In my opinion, it's better to find a famous teacher to teach him, as to not delay him.”

Li Wan’s most important thing in her heart was, naturally, her son. Therefore, hearing Sun Shaozong's words, she also restrained her chaotic thoughts and smiled bitterly, saying, "Although what you said is true, a famous teacher is really difficult to find. Moreover, he is still young now..."

“I have a candidate here who has literary talent and a moral character. Even if he can't co to give advice every day, it's still good to set up a master-apprentice relationship first.”

Sun Shaozong never casually ntioned this matter. He and Li Wan had a few dark monts of spring, but although they still couldn't ntion their long-term relationship, at least they were much closer than others.

Especially Jia Lan was indeed clever and amiable, so Sun Shaozong intentionally invited this child to worship under the Qian family.

Upon hearing this, Li Wan naturally couldn't help but be overjoyed. She quickly bowed and said, "Then I shall trouble you with this matter.”

After all, there was a difference between inside and outside, and Li Wan was also a widow. Therefore, after saying these few words, the two of them had to bid farewell reluctantly.

Just after leaving Li Wan, he didn't take a few steps before soone caught up with him.

“Dear nephew, please stay.”

This ti, it was not others who caught up, but it was the Elder Master Jia She who had just taken revenge on behalf of Sun Shaozong.

Seeing him coming up, Sun Shaozong couldn't help wondering what he was going to say.

So when Jia She ca near and asked curiously, "Uncle, what’s the matter of you coming to ?"

Jia She breathed a few tis and glanced around furtively. Then he opened his muddy eyes and mysteriously asked, "My dear nephew, have you ever heard of pottery, pearls, gold, and shells?"

“Pottery, pearl, gold…and shell?”

“That's right, pottery, pearls, gold, and shells.”

Jia She said, "Pottery, pearl, gold, and shell were with several gold threads, forming a pattern of copper coins on the shell. It is said that keeping them at ho is the best way to make money. So people bought several by chance a few days ago, and the price has increased dozens of tis in three or five days!"

As he spoke, he leaned his old face toward Sun Shaozong and whispered, "I have found a way to buy dozens of pieces of pottery, pearl, gold, and shell. However, I am struggling with the lack of silver. Why don't you and I, our two families, work together to buy them first? After making a big profit, how about sharing the benefits?”

“This…”

Sun Shaozong looked strange upon hearing this, but he felt that no matter how he looked at it, it was like a financial fraud.
