Chapter 143 It's All Yours
Chapter 143 It's All Yours
"what?"
Wu Weiwei was surprised.
How did the female lead find out about Sister Chen's husband?
Wu Weiwei looked at Chen Caiyun, feeling a strange sensation in her heart.
"Aunt, I don't know how she found out..."
Chen Caiyun looked puzzled.
So, it was something the female protagonist herself knew?
So, how did she find out?
Could it be that she has been in contact with Tongzhou ever since she returned to Beijing?
"Sister Chen, are you telling me this today to prove your loyalty?"
Chen Caiyun knelt down and said, "Auntie, if it weren't for the young master, I'm afraid I would have been kidnapped and sold by thieves by now."
We don't know what the outcome will be.
Today I came to the Marquis's residence, and I am grateful for the kindness of my aunt.
My aunt always taught me to be grateful and repay kindness. Although Caiyun cannot compare to the honest and loyal officials in history.
But I would never do anything that betrays my Lord!
Sister Chen spoke each word with force and conviction.
Wu Weiwei was deeply moved as she watched.
"Sister Chen, I believe you."
Wu Weiwei stepped forward and helped her up.
"Aunt, about the secret recipe..."
"I'll have someone investigate the secret recipe later."
"Thank you, Auntie!"
After Chen Caiyun left, Wu Weiwei looked at Granny Mei who was waiting to the side.
"Granny Mei, what's your opinion on the loss of the secret recipe?"
Granny Mei frowned.
She did indeed suspect her niece because of the theft of the secret recipe.
However, she later took the initiative to talk to me about her cousin's attempt to bribe her, and firmly told me that she would not betray Wu Weiwei.
Having spent so much time with Chen Caiyun, and with her keen eye for people, she naturally knew that her niece wouldn't do such a thing.
That's why Wu Weiwei led Chen Caiyun to receive her punishment after she returned.
“Aunt, this old servant believes that the one who stole the secret recipe is probably someone from the Marquis’s mansion.”
Of course, the most suspicious person is the cousin who bribed Caiyun.
However, there are others who have had conflicts with you...
For example, Lady Hou, or Lady Rong from the third wife's family.
Lady Hou had always disliked her own concubine.
Last time, she tried to frame Wang Xiulan but failed. Now, it's hard to guarantee that she won't try to trip up her aunt again.
As for this Rong family member, it is said that she had been ill for several days and had not recovered, so she went out and invited a doctor from outside to treat her condition.
Who knows if there's anything fishy going on here?
Moreover, a few days ago, her aunt slapped her younger sister, Deng, and in retaliation, she was also highly suspected of committing the crime.
Granny Mei told Wu Weiwei her guess, but saw her frown slightly.
“The people you mentioned, Granny Mei, are indeed suspects.”
However, the most pressing issue now is not finding the person who stole the secret formula, but rather the matter of the Baoji Ginseng Pills…”
She had put so much effort into the Po Chai Ginseng Pills; if the thieves had made them first, it would have been a great loss.
She couldn't swallow her anger at the thought of profiting from it.
Wu Weiwei looked ahead, recalling the very popular life-saving pill she had bought for her grandmother at great expense in modern times.
She might...
Wu Weiwei waved to Granny Wu.
Granny Mei walked over with a puzzled look on her face.
"Granny Mei, I think I have a way to break this..."
A villa on the outskirts of Beijing.
The servant solemnly handed the prescription to the middle-aged man, who had a prosperous appearance.
"This is?"
The portly man asked curiously.
"This is a prescription obtained by our master, who instructed you to spare no effort in producing the pills according to this prescription."
They even said that this deal would guarantee you wouldn't lose out...
The well-to-do man took the prescription and was greatly surprised when he saw the ingredients listed.
"Where did she get this? Did she buy it or...?"
“Master, the master said this is not something you should worry about.”
"Just do as the master says, and I guarantee you'll become the head of the family..."
After the servant left, the portly man fell into deep thought.
Although the pills in this prescription are indeed very effective, they also have flaws.
He spent a great deal of money to make it, and the original owner of the formula can also make it.
This way, he won't be the only one reaping the benefits.
The two sides will inevitably engage in a price war. Is that worthwhile?
Lu Hanting has not attended court for the past two days, but has stayed at home to recuperate from his injuries.
The imperial kitchen had just delivered the prince's medicine today, and Wu Weiwei walked in from outside, drawn by the smell of the medicine.
"Cuiyun, let me do it!"
"Aunt Wu, no need."
"You are the master; let us servants do the work of serving the young master!"
Cuiyun found it difficult.
"Why are you being so polite with me? If the young master likes me to serve him, then give it to me!"
Having no other choice, Cuiyun handed the medicine to Wu Weiwei.
Watching Aunt Wu tenderly feed the young master his medicine, Cuiyun and Rufeng, who was standing guard nearby, exchanged a glance.
They all expressed their approval.
The young master of their family has been recuperating from his injuries for the past two days.
Aunt Wu would come to visit him morning and evening, and every day she would take good care of the young master by serving him meals and changing his medicine.
In contrast, the young lady in the mansion...
Since returning from hunting in Qingshan, I have only visited Qingsongyuan once.
She leaves early and returns late every day, seemingly busy with something very important.
Even Ru Feng had some reservations about the young lady's actions.
He used to have a pretty good impression of He Yuyan.
But since seeing the contrast between Consort Wu's attentive care for the young master, she naturally felt uncomfortable.
It's fortunate that the young master is so deeply in love with his cousin, but his cousin...
inside the house.
Wu Weiwei fed the prince the medicine.
She looked at the prince with a hesitant expression, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
"Your Highness, I have been bothering you every day for the past two days. Aren't you tired of me?"
Lu Hanting looked at her and smiled.
He squeezed her palm.
"I really want to cut open your little head and see what you think about every day."
"You come to keep me company every day, and I am happy to do so. How could I possibly find you a nuisance..."
If it weren't for the inconvenience, he probably would have loved to embrace her and indulge in sensual pleasures during the day.
Wu Weiwei lowered her head slightly and said coquettishly, "I'm just glad that Your Highness doesn't bother me. I'm just afraid..."
Just then, Ru Feng came in to report.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince and Prince Min have just sent some things over. Would you like to take a look at them now?"
Upon hearing Ru Feng's words, Wu Weiwei's lips pursed slightly.
Sure enough, her hard work over the past two days wasn't in vain.
The reason she was so attentive was simply because of the "thing" the prince had promised her.
"Bring it in!"
Fortunately, Wei'er is here, so let her take a look.
"Yes."
After Ru Feng left, Wu Weiwei showered the young master with praise.
Seeing how sweet her words were, Lu Hanting immediately teased her:
"With such a sweet tongue, could it be that she's waiting for the assets that Prince Min and the Crown Prince will send over?"
"Sir..."
Wu Weiwei raised her hand.
"My heart for you is as clear as day."
Because of the arrow I shot at you, I haven't been able to sleep peacefully or even dream about it these past few days.
I fear that if something were to happen to you, I would have no one to rely on…
Wu Weiwei's eyes immediately reddened after she finished speaking.
Large tears streamed down her face, causing Lu Hanting to feel a pang of heartache and quickly try to comfort her.
"Why are you crying? I was just teasing you."
"Therefore, everything that the Crown Prince and Prince Min sent today is yours..."
