Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 24

Chapter 024 Calculate Step By Step
Not long after, Bai Juntao arrived first.

“Grandma.” Bai Juntao bent her knees slightly and bowed.

“Tao’er, come over here and sit down.” Madam Zou smiled and asked her to sit beside Yin Xun. Yin Xun glanced at her with disinterest and no longer looked at her.

As for Bai Juntao, she glanced at Yin Xun charmingly. With this glance, her gaze could no longer be moved away.

After waiting for a while, Bai Junzhuo arrived. She also politely bowed to Mrs. Zou. Mrs. Zou pointed to the seat opposite Yin Xun and said, “Sit down.”

Bai Junzhuo sat down and said to Madam Zou, “Tao’er, this is Young Master Yin. He is now the boss of the Bai Clan’s Medicinal Hall. It was he who saved our Bai Clan’s Medicinal Hall from danger. You must thank him properly.”

Bai Juntao listened and picked up the wine glass. Before she could say anything, Yin Xun casually waved his hand and said, “Forget it.”

Bai Juntao’s hands trembled and he almost spilled the wine. His face turned red and white.

Mrs. Zou saw that it was a little awkward and hurriedly said, “Eat the vegetables. It’s almost cold.”

When the three of them heard this, they all picked up their chopsticks. Bai Juntao moved the fastest. She picked up one of the legs of the plate of roasted chicken placed in the center and placed it in Mrs. Zou’s bowl. “Grandma, you haven’t eaten meat in the temple for several months. Now you can finally open the meat and eat more.”

Bai Junzhuo looked at the chopsticks and felt that it was funny. He then raised his eyes and peeked at Mrs. Zou. Mrs. Zou’s face darkened as well.

However, Mrs. Zou did not seem to want to provoke him, nor did she want to eat the chicken drumstick, nor did she want to eat it.

Since she was unwilling to speak, she would do him a favor. Bai Junzhuo put the chopsticks into Madam Zou’s bowl and smiled. “I know that Big Sister cares about Grandma, but Big Sister, have you forgotten that Daddy once taught us not to eat greasy food after eating light food for a long time? It hurts the stomach and is not easy to digest. It was because of eating like this that the great poet of one dynasty got sick.”

Bai Juntao’s expression changed slightly, but she could not refute what Bai Junzhuo had said. This was indeed the most basic common sense of diet therapy. The poisoning in the morning had failed, and he wanted to perform well to pull back the city, but this step was too urgent.

Fortunately, she reacted quickly and immediately felt guilty. Although she was talking to Mrs. Zou, she looked weakly at Yin Xun and said, “I’m sorry, Grandma. When I was in the temple, Grandma always reminded me of the cook’s roasted chicken. That’s why I …”

Bai Juntao, like her mother, Lin Bailian, was born with a white lotus flower. Now that she spoke so softly and tenderly, it seemed that Bai Junzhuo had deliberately embarrassed her.

“Alright.” Madam Zou’s expression was unhappy. Bai Juntao’s performance wasn’t up to her usual standards, and Bai Junzhuo didn’t look at people’s faces. In such a situation, could she bring up her sister’s mistakes? There really wasn’t a single one that could ease her mind!

“Miss Bai doesn’t seem to be very proficient in pharmacology. Just now, Old Lady suggested that Miss Bai take over the medicine hall. But now, it seems that Third Miss Bai is more suitable.” Yin Xun said this with some regret, and Bai Junzhuo and Bai Juntao looked at him in surprise at the same time.

Although Bai Juntao’s expression did not change much, the hand under the table was about to be pinched by her. It took a long time to calm down and she smiled gently again, “Young Master said that the third sister is the daughter of the Bai Clan’s first wife, and her medical skills are passed down from father to father. Naturally, it would be better for her to take over.”

Bai Junzhuo shifted his gaze away from Yin Xun’s face, but he thought in his heart, If this man really only wanted her to take over the Medicine Hall, then he could just tell Madam Zou directly. Why would he say it in front of them?

Instigate relationships?

Bai Junzhuo’s thoughts stirred. He laughed and said to Bai Juntao, “Sister, please don’t say that. In our Bai Clan, there is no such thing as a daughter of the first wife. They are all granddaughters of Grandma. Grandma loves them all the same. As for who will be given the medicine hall, Young Master will take half of it, and Grandma will take half of it as well.”

Hearing this, Yin Xun looked thoughtfully at Bai Junzhuo, and she guessed what he was thinking?

Bai Juntao was also stunned.

Madam Zou looked at Bai Junzhuo with admiration, and then asked Yin Xun, “Young Master, would you like to hear this old man’s words?”

“Naturally.” Yin Xun smiled and signaled for Madam Zou to continue.

“I also said before that Zhuo’er is young and lacks experience, but since Young Master wants Zhuo’er to manage the medicine hall, Zhuo’er will let go. However, why don’t you let Tao’er help you … I think, I’ll give Tao’er half of the rights, how about it?”

In the end, who the Alchemy Hall fell into depended on their strength.

Yin Xun glanced at Bai Junzhuo, but saw that she did not express anything, as if Madam Zou’s suggestion was completely within her expectations.

“Then listen to the matriarch.” Yin Xun nodded.

Finally finding a way to compromise, the four of them ostensibly ate with each other.

After dinner, Madam Zou brought his two granddaughters and the servants to escort Yin Xun out of the mansion. When he arrived at the gate, Yin Xun suddenly said, “Old Lady, this junior still has a few words to tell Miss Bai. May I ask?”

Madam Zou hesitated for a moment before nodding and bringing Bai Juntao and the servants back.

Seeing that there was no one around, Bai Junzhuo asked first, “Young Master Yin, what do you need to tell me?”

Yin Xun smiled faintly when he saw her unkind tone. “I originally wanted to hand over the Medicine Hall to you, but you didn’t want it yourself.”

‘”Hmph,” Bai Junzhuo sneered. “If I had agreed, what would Grandma think of me? If you were sincere for my sake, you shouldn’t have told Grandma in front of me. However, you can rest assured that if Bai Juntao really has the ability, I don’t mind her helping me manage the medicine hall. If she doesn’t have the ability, I have a way to deal with her.”

“Then you have to make some achievements,” Yin Xun said indifferently, but there was a hint of amusement between his eyebrows. “Don’t disappoint me.”

“Don’t worry.”

After the corner, Bai Juntao, who had been watching them, gritted her teeth.

“Young miss, Third Young Miss is really not ashamed. She actually talked and laughed with a man at the gate, and even behaved intimately. Really …”

“Stop!” Bai Juntao interrupted Bi He angrily, panting heavily, causing the poison that she had suffered in the morning to break out again.

‘”Miss,” Bi He thought that Bai Juntao was so angry that she felt that Bai Junzhuo’s dissolute behavior had ruined the sect. “Miss, don’t be angry for someone like Third Miss. Third Miss is so casual. Sooner or later, she will be tricked by a man and lose her heart. Perhaps she will never get married again. Hmph!”

This sentence caused waves in Bai Juntao’s heart. She recalled what she had said to her in the ancestral hall last night. After a long time, Bai Juntao gritted her teeth and said, “You’re right. In the past, I didn’t think that this little sister was a threat, so I didn’t care about her. Bai Junzhuo, since you’ve put your mind on me, don’t blame me for being merciless.”

Bai Juntao was planning to deal with Bai Junzhuo. Just as Yin Xun left, someone from the Medicine Hall came over and happened to meet Bai Junzhuo. He said to her, “Miss, Shopkeeper Liu told me to tell you that everything you told me has been changed. In addition, there is a big merchant who wants to buy 7,000 jin of Shanglu. Shopkeeper Liu asked you to discuss it in detail.”

Seven thousand jin of pokeweed? Hearing this, Bai Junzhuo’s eyes lit up. If this deal was really successful, he would be rich in minutes!

“Let’s go, let’s go to the medicine hall now!”

After Bai Junzhuo left with that person, Bi He said to Bai Juntao strangely, “Miss, isn’t that person the assistant of the Medicine Hall?”

Bai Juntao nodded. It seemed like something had happened in the Medicine Hall.

She rolled her eyes slightly and thought for a while before saying to Bihe, “Bihe, I’m going to the medicine hall later. Go help me with something.”

Bihe nodded and whispered to Bai Juntao.

When Bai Junzhuo arrived at the medicine hall, Bai Juntao followed him. The two of them looked at each other and didn’t have time to pay attention to each other. Bai Juntao said first, “Liu Shun, what happened to the medicine hall?”

Liu Shun looked at Bai Juntao in surprise and hesitated, “Young miss?”

Bai Juntao was suddenly a little angry, but she still smiled and said, “Shopkeeper Liu, it was grandma who asked me to take care of the medicine hall with my third sister. In the future, I have to trouble Shopkeeper Liu to bring up more about me.”

Sooner or later, he would be replaced by his trusted aides!

As Bai Juntao thought this, she looked at the waiters standing around her. She was stunned … The trusted aides that she and her mother had nurtured in the past actually didn’t see a single one of them!

Bai Junzhuo was glad that he had changed the clerk in advance. He looked at Bai Juntao with some amusement and said to Liu Shundao, “Uncle Liu, big sister is right. Grandma told me to take care of the medicine hall with her. Tell us if there’s anything you need.”

Liu Shun nodded, “Boss Xu Xiaoyi, the great merchant from Xuchang, heard that the quality of Shanglu planted by our Bai Clan is good. After being improved by Miracle Doctor Bai, he ordered 7,000 jin in one go. Seeing that the business is about to be settled, Boss Shen of Shen Ji Medicine Hall suddenly said that their Shanglu is half cheaper than ours. Boss Xu hesitated and hesitated.”

“Do you know where Boss Xu is staying?” Bai Junzhuo and Bai Juntao asked.

“Oh, I know. Boss Xu lives in the largest restaurant in Luoyang City, the Fragrant Tea House.”

“Help me arrange an appointment with Boss Xu. I want to discuss it with him personally.” Bai Juntao ordered.

Liu Shun did not directly agree. He looked at Bai Junzhuo as if he was asking.

“Go, Uncle Liu,” Bai Junzhuo smiled. “Help Eldest Sister arrange a meeting with Boss Xu.”

Only then did Liu Shun agree. When Bai Juntao saw Liu Shun’s performance, although she was depressed, she remained calm and said, “Thank you, Shopkeeper Liu.”

After she left, Liu Shun asked Bai Junzhuo in confusion, “Young miss, I guess Old Madame asked you to run the medicine hall with Eldest Madame because she wanted to know which of you is stronger. If Young Madame talks about this business, Old Madame will definitely look at Young Madame differently, but why did Young Madame give up the opportunity to Eldest Madame?”

When Bai Jun Zhuo saw that Liu Shun was wholeheartedly thinking for her, he was very touched. She explained, “I don’t know the background of this big merchant from Xu Chang. I’m in a hurry to show him without a detailed plan. Perhaps he will cause people to feel annoyed. I’m just letting Big Sister lead the way.”

Liu Shun thought for a moment and felt that it was more appropriate for Miss to do things step by step.

“But we can’t do nothing,” Bai Junzhuo thought for a moment and said, “Uncle Liu, help me arrange a meeting with the Second Head of the Shen Clan’s Medicine Hall.”

Liu Shun was puzzled again and asked, “Why is it the Second Boss? They are the ones who are focused on robbing our business.”
