Wanjin Lady

Chapter 241 Dealer

Wen Wan and Mr. Tu went to Widow Wang first, and learned from the landlord that it was Doctor Luo who treated Widow Wang. Then they walked around Bozhou City and searched all the clinics before they found the Doctor Luo that the landlord had mentioned.

But other doctors in the clinic said that Doctor Luo had returned home to visit his relatives long ago and had left Bozhou for more than a month. When they asked in detail, no one knew where Doctor Luo's hometown was.

The clue ends here.

Mr. Tu, who had been able to keep his composure, was also somewhat annoyed. "Miss, why do I always feel that there is something fishy about this matter... Wherever we chase, the clues stop... It's as if..."

Mr. Tu was tongue-tied and couldn't explain it clearly. Wen Wan sneered and said, "It's like... someone is watching us from behind."

Mr. Tu's face darkened. That's exactly what happened!

"go home."

Wen Wan returned home, and soon Yao Shizhen entered the yard with a healer carrying a medicine box. As soon as he entered, he looked around with his hands behind his back. "This house is too small! How can you, mother and your two children, live here? You're the richest man in Ping County, how did you end up like this?"

Seeing Wen Wan's tired face again, Yao Shizhen said angrily, "You are already a mother of two children, how come you can't take care of yourself?"

Wen Wan knew that this old man was just like her adoptive father, tough on the outside but soft on the inside. She smiled helplessly, "How can I be called the richest man? Has my adoptive father ever seen a rich man in such a mess like me?"

Chen Ma came forward with the child in her arms and greeted Yao Shizhen, "Master Yao, this is just a temporary stay. I've been looking for a house these days."

Yao Shizhen stroked his beard and said, "If you have any problems with the money, just tell your stepmother directly. You are also a daughter of the Yao family, so they won't treat you unfairly."

Wen Wan smiled and said, "My daughter will work hard to become the richest person in Ping County."

Yao Shizhen hugged Zhaozhao and Hun'er, and in the end he held Zhaozhao tightly and stared at the little girl's face carefully for a while. He felt that the little girl looked a little familiar... But the little girl whined and was immediately taken away by Chen Ma beside her.

Only then did Aunt Chen let out a sigh of relief and felt relieved.

She was really terrified by the way Mr. Yao held the baby.

After all the servants had left, Yao Shizhen's expression grew more serious. He then waved for the doctor to come forward and said, "I have seen Lord Yan these past two days. I also asked Doctor Liu to go into the prison and give Brother Wen a checkup."

Wenwan looked at Doctor Liu anxiously.

Doctor Liu said, "Mr. Wen has damp heat in his body. The wound on his back is swollen and festering, and he didn't seek medical attention promptly. The wound hasn't healed for a long time, causing him excruciating pain. He also suffered injuries to his feet. The fractured end of his right foot is dislocated, and the area is deformed, red, and swollen. Even if he recovers... I'm afraid he'll have difficulty walking in the future."

The young lady pursed her lips stubbornly. Her eyes were calm, but the corners of her eyes were slightly red.

"The prison is cold and damp. If Shopkeeper Wen wants to save his father... he has to do it quickly."

Wen Wan clenched her hands into fists before slowly releasing them, "Thank you, Doctor Liu."

Wen Wan called Hongmei over to give Doctor Liu a generous helping of rice. She returned to her seat, her eyes steady. Yao Shizhen then continued, "I've met with Yan Shouli over the past couple of days and reviewed the case files. Your father's case... both in terms of procedure and evidence... Yan Shouli handled it flawlessly."

Wen Wan had anticipated this outcome. "Since Lord Yan has risen to the position of prefect, no matter how powerful the mastermind's background is, he can handle this case flawlessly." Wen Wan then informed Yao Shizhen about Widow Wang's situation.

Yao Shizhen didn't know Wen Weiming well enough to guarantee his character. Previously, the two families had maintained peace only for Wen Wan's sake. After the incident, Wen Wan was completely focused on saving her father, and Yao Shizhen and his wife secretly wondered if Wen Weiming wasn't innocent.
After all, concern can lead to confusion. As children... naturally, they are unwilling to believe that their elders would do such a shameful thing.

But now, after hearing Wen Wan say that Widow Wang was suffering from a terminal illness and that she was a secret prostitute at the docks, Yao Shizhen also keenly sensed something fishy.

"This matter...I'm afraid there is someone behind it."

Wen Wan's eyes were cold. "I suspect... they're here for the recipe for the Ruiguo Pulp. Coincidentally, Master Ma has also disappeared."

Yao Shizhen didn't understand the twists and turns of the business world. "Do you have any way to deal with it?"

Wen Wan narrowed her eyes and said, "When the enemy comes, we will fight them with our generals; when the water comes, we will block it with earth."

Before Yao Shizhen left, he didn't forget to taunt her: "Look at you, the richest man, living in this small courtyard. Hurry up and find a bigger courtyard with better security to settle down. It doesn't matter if you are thick-skinned, but you can't make my two grandsons suffer."

Wen Wan: "..."

When did she become thick-skinned?

Godfather, you are talking more and more like a scooter.

After seeing Yao Shizhen off, Wen Wan had just returned home to hug her two children when she heard a strange man's voice coming from the outer courtyard. Liu Yiyi led the man into the courtyard and beckoned Wen Wan out, "Miss, this is Manager Xu. He was the first person to sign a contract with our winery after the wine-making meeting. Manager Xu came here today to discuss business matters with you."

It turned out that it was Party A’s father who came.

Wen Wan put the child down and walked into the yard. Liu Yiyi then served tea and acted as a good hostess.

Shopkeeper Xu was also straightforward and said, "Although Shopkeeper Wen has had these things happen... I really don't want to come to your house at this time... But life has to go on. Miss Wen should be more open-minded and cheer up soon. Business still needs to be done. After all, the two children are still young."

Seeing that Wen Wan didn't look surprised, Shopkeeper Xu continued, "I came here today just to confirm with Miss Wen that I paid a deposit of eighty taels. Can the Ruiguo pulp be delivered on time for the second half of this year?"

Wen Wan glanced at Liu Yiyi's face and then said, "Shopkeeper Xu, as you know, this Ruiguo pulp is a new product launched by my Wen Family Winery this year. I originally wanted to show it at the wine-cooking conference just to do some early promotion, but I never expected it to be so popular that so many orders were placed. I think my father should have made it clear to all the shopkeepers before that this wine has not yet been officially produced this year, and everything is unknown. If Shopkeeper Xu wants to cancel the order, I-"

Shopkeeper Xu interrupted her hastily, "I'm not cancelling my order, I just want to confirm whether you'll continue the Ruiguojue business or not."

"Yes. Of course."

"That's good. If you say so, I'm willing to wait for you." After hearing Wen Wan's honest words, Shopkeeper Xu felt relieved. "I've tasted that Ruiguo syrup. It's mellow and sweet, with a rich fruity aroma. I predict it will be popular among young ladies in the future. Therefore, I am willing to believe that Shopkeeper Wen can revive the winery and bring Ruiguo syrup into the Bozhou market."

Wen Wan smiled and bowed, "Thank you, Manager Xu, for your kindness. I'd like to ask, is Manager Xu also in the winemaking business?"

"Although I don't make wine, I own several wine shops and restaurants, and have been involved in wine since I was a child. So when I smelled the aroma of the Rui fruit pulp at the wine-making party that day, I knew this wine was extraordinary."

It turns out to be a dealer.
