<h4>Chapter 176: Visiting The Little Munchkins</h4> <h4><strong>Trantor: </strong>Henyee Trantions <strong> Editor: </strong>Henyee Trantions</h4>


    Everyone pricked up their ears, wanting to know who this woman who even dared to bully Young Master Yan’s brother-inw but could not even give birth to a child was.


    Yan Xie was really drunk. He even gossiped about such a woman. He was too unlike a man.


    Jun Chang’an watched the show with interest. Yan Huaijing shouldn’t care about such rumors, but for some reason, he also wanted to know that name.


    “Come here. I’ll talk to you in a low voice. She’s…”


    With Jun Chang’an and Yan Huaijing’s hearing, no matter how low Yan Xie’s voice was, it was enough for them to hear clearly. However, just as he was about to speak, a team of guards suddenly rushed over from outside the door. They pushed aside the young masters surrounding Yan Xie, grabbed Yan Xie’s arm, and dragged him out.


    “Hey! What are you doing? You even dare to barge into my Ningxiang Brothel? I think you guys don’t want to live anymore!”


    Madam Jin waved her handkerchief and stood up angrily.


    “We’re Marquis Yan’s men. Why? Do you want to settle the score?” The leader of the guards nced at her coldly. Madam Jin’s heart skipped a beat. She had naturally heard of Marquis Yan. Not only had he won the battle at the border, but he was also the Emperor’s favorite person and the hero in the hearts of themoners. Most importantly, his daughter had given birth to three children for Young Master Yan. Since the Emperor praised the Yan family so much, he was most likely going to be Young Master Yan’s father-inw.


    Madam Jin dared to offend others, but she could not afford to offend that Young Master.


    Fortunately, the guards left in a hurry after capturing Yan Xie. Madam Jin pretended to chase after them a few times, pretending that those people were scared off by her.


    With themotion gone, the young masters dispersed.


    “Let’s go, Your Highness,” Jun Chang’an said.


    Yan Huaijing nodded lightly and followed Jun Chang’an into the carriage parked in the alley.


    ......


    The Yan Manor’s carriage was not far away, and a woman’s delicate shout came from inside.


    Jun Chang’an said, “It’s Miss Yan.”


    Yan Huaijing nced at the Yan Manor’s carriage and said expressionlessly, “Back to the manor.”


    On the other hand, after Yan Xie was caught and boarded the carriage, he immediately saw his sister. His mind was not very clear at this time, and his reaction was slow. For a while, he did not feel any guilt.


    Yan Ruyu instructed the guards outside the carriage, “Go to the alley and guard it. Don’t let anyone approach us!”


    “Yes!”


    The guards responded and left. Yan Huaijing’s carriage was the only one parked in the alley. After it left, there were no more idle people.


    Yan Ruyu looked coldly at her drunk brother and sshed a cup of cold water on him!


    Yan Xie shuddered, half sobering up. He sat up straight in anger. “Yan Ruyu! What are you doing!”


    Yan Ruyu mmed the cup back onto the table. “What am I doing? I should be the one asking you this. Where did you get the nerve from? Who asked you to spout nonsense outside!”


    Yan Xie finally realized what he had said in the Ningxiang Brothel. It was said that alcohol strengthened one’s courage. These words were true. If it were any other time, he would never dare to do such a thing even if he was beaten to death. However, once the alcohol got to his head, he’s not even afraid of the gods.


    “I didn’t… didn’t say the name…” Yan Xie muttered guiltily.


    Yan Ruyu was furious at his pigheadedness. “Do you really think you can mess around outside just because you’re my biological brother? Do you think I can’t do anything to you? Don’t forget who gave you your current wealth and glory! If I can give it to you, I can also get it back!”


    Yan Xie didn’t like hearing this.


    “Don’t hate to hear it!” Yan Ruyu stopped Yan Xie in time and said in a cold voice, “I finally managed to help the Yan Family up. If you dare to spout nonsense again, you’ll be the first to die!”


    Yan Xie shivered in fear!


    … .


    On the other hand, after Old Master Bai saw through Mrs. Bai’s true intentions, Yu Wan had been busy with the workshop’s business. Every day, she would go up the mountain with Yu Shaoqing to dig bamboo shoots. She was so busy that her feet did not touch the ground. She had not entered the Capital for a few days.


    Shopkeeper Cui asked someone to bring news that Old Master Bai had broken off the engagement with the Chen family. He did not say much about Mrs. Bai and Bai Tang’s younger brother, but it was not difficult to guess that the two of them were in a bad situation.


    It was hard not to suspect that the child was Old Master Bai’s biological child after Mrs. Bai did such a thing. The truth was not important. What Old Master Bai believed was the most important.


    “Shopkeeper Cui asked me to ask Miss, when will Miss’s smallpox recover?” The shop assistant said.


    Yu Wan curved her lips and said, “Old Master Bai invited a doctor and offered incense to Buddha. I believe it won’t be long before the heavens were moved by her.”


    … .


    “Ah Wan!”


    Not long after Shopkeeper Cui’s shop assistant left, the vige headman came to visit.


    Yu Wan was choosing the spring bamboo shoots that she had dug from the back of the mountain. She ced the old and young in different baskets. When she heard the vige headman’s voice, she put down the work in her hands and wiped her hands with a cotton cloth before going to the central room. ” Vige headman, why are you here? Please sit!”


    The vige headman sat down in the central room.


    Yu Wan poured a bowl of tea.


    The vige headman saw the jar and food box on the table and wondered, “Are you going to deliver goods again?”


    The vigers knew that Yu Wan was doing business with a big restaurant in the Capital. The restaurant’s carriage came every day to carry goods, but asionally, Yu Wan would personally deliver some goods.


    Today, she wasn’t just going to deliver food to Master Qin. Yu Wan hadn’t seen the little munchkins for a few days and missed them. She asked Uncle to make some snacks and nned to send them to the little onester.


    However, it was not good to let the vige headman know about this.


    “Yes, I made some sour bamboo shoots. I don’t know if they’re satisfied, but I’ll send them over to try first,” Yu Wan said with a smile.


    “Ah…” The vige headman was in a daze for a moment. Just a few months ago, Ah Wan was still an obstinate and honest girl. Now, she has be so slick. Her illness had really enlightened this girl.


    He wondered if the Zhao family’s boy would regret his decision when he found out that Ah Wan had be so capable. However, this was not important. The Zhao family had already fled overnight. They would not be able to enjoy Ah Wan’s kindness at all.


    “Why are you looking for me?” Yu Wan asked.


    “How’s your father’s matter?” the vige headman asked.


    Yu Wan said, “Uncle Wu went to look for someone. When he’s found, he can clear my father’s name.”


    The vige headman sighed and said, “It wasn’t easy for him toe back alive, but something like this happened… We all believe in his character. I hope he can clear his name as soon as possible.”


    Yu Wan smiled.


    The vige headman continued, “I’m here today because I have a request.”


    “You’re treating me like an outsider. If there’s anything you need, feel free to say it. As long as it’s something I can do, I’ll do my best.” Yu Wan had a good impression of the vige headman. Even though he once thought highly of Zhao Heng, he was not biased towards Zhao Heng when it came to dealing with her and the Zhao family. He might not be a very capable official, but he was an upright and kind person.


    The vige headmanughed embarrassedly. “You’ve already helped the vigers so much that I’m embarrassed to ask again.”


    Yu Wan smiled. “Go ahead and say it.”


    The vige headman sighed. “Isn’t it all because of your Brother Erniu and the others? They have nothing to do now that there’s no more war. There’s nond for them to farm too. I just want to ask you, is the workshop still short of people?”


    “The workshop doesn’tck people for the time being.” The jack that Master Qin had helped to customize had arrived. Using the jack to press on the tofu greatly saved time. Everyone’s skills were also more familiar than before, and their work efficiency had increased exponentially. They couldpletely handle the orders for the tofu and sour bamboo shoots.


    “However,” Yu Wan continued, “we n to build dormitories and factories. We need a lot of manpower. Also, I want to find someone to buy arge number of spring bamboo shoots.”


    There were many spring bamboo shoots in the back mountain, but it would probably be not enough if they were really used to supply the Drunken Immortal Pavilion.


    The vige headman could understand the bamboo shoots, but what was with the dormitories and factories?


    Yu Wan exined briefly, and the vige headman was enlightened. “Girl, you have so much spare money!”


    “I have to build it even if I don’t have the money. Otherwise, I won’t be able to do business.” The firewood shed at Auntie Luo’s house next door was filled with their goods. Yu Wan continued, “If Brother Erniu and the others don’t mind, they cane over and help build the house first. A big job costs 80 copper coins a day, and a small job costs 50 copper coins.”


    “So, so much…” The vige headman was stunned. This sry was double that of Apricot Flower Vige. “You, you… don’t lose out. Although we’re from the same vige, don’t give us what you shouldn’t give. It’s not easy for your Yu family to have today!”


    Yu Wanughed. “I’m not giving them such a high sry for nothing. My requirements are higher. I won’t hire anyone who doesn’t meet my requirements.”


    The vige headman nodded repeatedly. “Of course, of course!”


    With such a high sry, it was enough to go to the city to pick people, let alone in the vige!


    The vige headman happily left Yu Wan’s house and went to deliver the news. On the other side, Yu Wan had also sorted out the spring bamboo shoots and carried the sour bamboo shoots and snacks to town.


    She did not call Yu Feng along. Yu Feng and Yu Song went to the countryside to look at the stone and green bricks.


    Yu Wan first went to the Young Master Manor, but she was told that the little fellows were not around because Yan Jiuchao brought them out.


    Yu Wan, who had missed her target, had a dark expression on her face. There was really no one else who would do such a thing when they’re in self-reflection.
