    “Donger!”

    “Good day, proprietor!”

    “Dongjia, this is freshly pickled pickles for us, take some back with you.”

    “Dongjia, these asparagus are the ones we went to dig this morning, you take them back and try them …….”

    “Master Dong, I have a wild rabbit here please do take it!”

    “……”

    The people on the manor were extraordinarily enthusiastic when they saw Wei Ruo, and they sent gifts representing their thoughts to Wei Ruo.

    Recently, there is not much farming on the manor, Wei Ruo let them busy with their own things.

    Some knit straw shoes, some pickle some farm vegetables, and others venture out to hunt in the nearby mountains.

    The harvest was small, but no one wanted to be idle.

    And the things they got, they couldn’t eat themselves, they kept them and gave them to Wei Ruo.

    Then Wei Ruo went to the workshop again, the operation of the workshop has been on track, every day there are raw materials sent to the manor, but also finished products delivered out.

    Except for soy sauce, which has a long production cycle, it has not been sold to the public yet.

    But there were already more than twenty vats stacked outside the workshop where the soy sauce was made.

    One by one, Wei Ruo checked the soybeans that were fermenting in these tanks to make sure that the fermentation was progressing and in the condition she wanted.

    The longer the production cycle of something, the greater the probability of problems, Wei Ruo must regularly control it.

    And then Wei Ruo found Steward Yu alone and talked to him about the location of the brewery.

    Before Wei Ruo did not intend to let the Yu steward’s in charge of the brewery, but also intended to let Xu Zhushan work a little harder and make two more trips.

    But now Wei Ruo has changed her mind, she intends to focus on cultivating Steward Yu, in the future, this manor and the things around the manor will be handed over to Steward Yu’s to deal with.

    “Good, then tomorrow I will select a few people to come out to the place chosen by the proprietor and prepare to build the house.” Steward Yu replied.

    “You first bring people to fix the ground in that area, there are still quite a lot of messy rocks and weeds there, the subsequent construction will wait for me to draw out the drawings.” Wei Ruo said.

    “Good, everything is at the East Master’s disposal.” Steward Yu said.

    When she finished talking business with Steward Yu, Wei Ruo asked about Zhu Zongyu, “Has there been anything unusual about Mr. Zhu in the past few days?”

    Although there was nothing wrong with Zhu Zongyu’s explanation last time, Wei Ruo still asked Steward Yu to pay more attention just in case with the idea of being careful.

    “There’s nothing abnormal, he could barely get out of bed until the day before yesterday, the weather outside was cold, and he only stayed in his room, asking me for a few books to read when he was bored, other than that it was just to take medicines and meals and recuperate his body according to the proprietor’s requirements.”

    Wei Ruo nodded, “Keep watching, and if anything goes wrong, send a letter to me immediately.”

    “Okay proprietor.” Steward Yu said.

    After finishing with Steward Yu, Wei Ruo went to see Zhu Zongyu.

    He had stayed inside the east cottage and hadn’t gone out.

    The room was warmed by a charcoal fire.

    Seeing Wei Ruo enter, Zhu Zongyu rose, “Mr. Xu.”

    “Came to check on you.” Wei Ruo said.

    “Thank you for your concern, if it wasn’t for you, I would have already lost my life in the Yellow Springs, this favor from you, I will never forget it in my life.” Zhu Zongyue promised to Wei Ruo.

    “I just hope I didn’t save the wrong person, I hope you are a good person, or at least an ordinary person, not an outlaw.” Wei Ruo said.

    “Don’t worry, Mr. Xu, although I don’t dare to call myself any kind of good person, I am by no means a person who does wrong.” Zhu Zongyue promised Wei Ruo.

    For the time being, Wei Ruo did not comment on this statement.

    Immediately after that, Wei Ruo came forward and removed the bandage from Zhu Zongyue’s face.

    The face under the bandage was still scarred, not as bloody and frightening as it had been when he first saw it, but not at all visible in its original form.

    After carefully observing the injury, Wei Ruo went to a side table and sat down to write a new prescription.

    “Mr. Xu, could there be a chance for my face to recover?” Zhu Zongyu inquired.

    He hadn’t looked in the mirror in the past few days, but he knew that his face was so badly bruised that it had reached the point of disfigurement.

    “Your face is bumped, bruised, stabbed and scratched, although the area is large, but the good thing is that none of the injuries are that deep, so there is still a possibility of recovery.” Wei Ruo said.

    “Can Mr. Xu help me recover?” Zhu Zongyu asked.

    “Mr. Zhu came to the Jiangzhe generation to deliver the New Year’s gift do you know that in the past two years because of the war, the medicinal herbs in this generation have become very scarce, and many of them are very difficult to pick up and buy.”

    Wei Ruo didn’t answer Zhu Zongyue’s question directly, but instead asked Zhu Zongyue a question in return.

    “I know.” Zhu Zongyu replied.

    “The medicine I used to make the wounds on your face heal without endangering your life I can currently find, but if you want your appearance to be completely restored as it was before, the price to pay would be far greater than just making the wounds heal, three times, five times, or even ten or a hundred times.” Wei Ruo explained.

    “Sir Xu please rest assured, money is not a problem, my family is in business other things may not necessarily be there, but silver money is definitely enough, as long as Sir Xu has a way, I am willing to pay any price.” Zhu Zongyu said in a determined tone.

    Wei Ruo looked at him without speaking right away.

    He said that his family had money, but now he didn’t have any money on him, and even if Wei Ruo wanted to help him with the advance, some of the expensive herbs were not something she could get by spending money now.

    Zhu ZongYu seems to know WeiRuo’s thinking immediately after said: “Xu GongZi, I have a former friend in Taizhou province, is the drunken fairy house boss, surnamed Fan, business time and he has had some dealings, had some friendship, if I write to him he is likely to be willing to lend money to me to save the emergency, just want to trouble Xu GongZi send someone to help me send a letter.”

    “Are you talking about Fan Chengxu, the owner of Drunken Immortal Residence?” Wei Ruo asked.

    “Yes.” Zhu Zongyu nodded his head.

    Fan Chengxu Wei Ru of course is recognized, and know that although this person is a businessman, but in fact comes from a famous family, the identity can not be underestimated.

    If Zhu Zongyue and Fan Chengxu know each other and have reached the point where the other party is willing to pay for him, then Zhu Zongyue’s credibility as a person can be raised quite a bit again, or at least prove to a certain extent that he’s not some kind of cockamamie.

    “Alright, I’ll have someone send you a letter.” Wei Ruo said.

    Immediately afterward Wei Ruo had Zhu Zongyu sit down at the table and write a letter with his right hand, which was slightly less injured.

    The stab wounds on Zhu Zongyue’s body were mainly concentrated on his front chest and back, and it was obvious that the other party had attacked him to death.

    In front of Wei Ruo, Zhu Zongyu wrote a letter to Fan Chengxu.

    The content of the letter is nothing special, explaining his current situation, and then requesting Fan Chengxu to come to his aid and lend him a sum of silver.

    The very first address to Fan Seung Wook is Brother Cheong Won, which may be Fan Seung Wook’s character.

    The last signature is Tomo, Zongyu.

    And then Wei Ruo handed the letter to Steward Yu, asking him to send someone to the Drunken Immortal Residence.

    The Zhuangzi had business dealings with the Drunken Immortal Residence during this time, and traveling to and from the Drunken Immortal Residence was already commonplace, so sending a letter was not a problem.
