Chapter 129 Disdain
Lu Hanting was taken aback when he heard He Yuyan's request.
"Yan'er, are you going hunting in Qingshan?"
"No, can't I?"
He Yuyan's face flushed red; she had never made any requests to Lu Hanting.
This was the first time she shamelessly made such a request.
If he doesn't agree, then she...
Lu Hanting hesitated for a moment, but quickly became excited.
Yan'er sets requirements for herself.
Does this mean she will no longer close her heart and is willing to open it up to him?
Lu Hanting looked at her; it seemed that Yan'er had figured things out.
Although the emperor only ordered Wei'er to participate in the hunt.
He could bring along Yan'er, and given his status, no one dared to say anything.
"Yan'er, can you tell me why you want to go hunting?"
Could it be that he's jealous of Wei'er?
Looking at his expectant face.
He Yuyan scoffed inwardly.
However, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say:
"Yan'er wants to see the splendor of the royal family. If the young master is unwilling to take me, then so be it."
Although she has now taken over Weiyuan, she still needs to work on getting Weiyuan up and running as quickly as possible.
There is still a lot of work to be done.
She doesn't just want to develop various health and beauty ointments and medicinal diets.
I also need to maintain good relationships with these wealthy ladies.
However, most of the wealthy women in Beijing have been won over by Wu Weiwei.
Only a few people switched sides to Wu Weiwei because they had conflicts with her.
These past few days she has been busy dealing with these difficult ladies.
Wu Weiwei transferred Weiyuan to her, and also transferred the noble lady she had in her hands.
She thought this was a good thing, but who knew that after Wu Weiwei took away that group of brothel prostitutes, she hadn't been able to find a suitable beautician for a while.
Moreover, even if we manage to recruit them, we'll still need to find someone to train them.
These days, a number of wealthy women have come to work on the project, but it's because she just took over.
Faced with the empty shell left behind by Wu Weiwei, where could she find people to provide services for them?
So in the past few days, many wealthy ladies have been clamoring to get their cards refunded from her.
But Wu Weiwei made all the money from those VIP card purchases.
Where could she find the money to return to them?
He Yuyan told them to ask Wu Weiwei for a refund, but the wealthy women said they only recognized the Weiyuan brand and this shop.
Now, whoever owns Weiyuan, that's who they'll seek a refund from.
It's so shameless.
She kept all these things to herself, and apart from her two maids, she couldn't tell anyone else.
She didn't want to talk about these things with Lu Hanting, and she certainly didn't want to seek help from him.
That would make her seem incompetent, and she didn't want people to know that she was inferior to Wu Weiwei.
Today, Dingxiang came up with an idea for herself.
Tell her to go find the Crown Prince and participate in the royal hunt.
After all, the emperor's concubines will be attending the hunt tomorrow.
If she could befriend the nobles in the palace, these thorny problems would be easily solved.
Seeing He Yuyan's disappointed look, Lu Hanting comforted her:
"Yan'er, you're overthinking it."
If you want to go, I'd love to take you with me.
Hearing the prince's words, He Yuyan looked at him with delight.
"In that case, Yan'er thanks the young master."
Seeing her shy expression, Lu Hanting couldn't help but reach out and touch her charming face.
This time, He Yuyan did not dodge, but simply let him do as he pleased.
He Yuyan had anticipated that the Crown Prince would take further action, and she was prepared.
But the prince only touched her face and then withdrew his hand.
"Sir..."
Looking at He Yuyan's face, Wu Weiwei's rosy and radiant face suddenly popped into his mind.
His passionate erection suddenly went limp.
This……
Lu Hanting awkwardly withdrew his hand.
What's going on? Could it be that Wei'er really put a curse on herself?
He Yuyan, after all, had been through it all.
Upon seeing the Crown Prince's actions, she suddenly understood something.
Lu Hanting turned his face away awkwardly.
"Yan'er, I have other things to attend to, so I won't stay any longer."
I'll have Cuiyun bring your riding gear over later..."
He Yuyan didn't know how to react for a moment, and just nodded.
Seeing the prince's hasty retreat, He Yuyan's face gradually paled.
Does he think she's dirty?
After leaving Qiu Xinyuan, Lu Hanting hurriedly headed towards Biyunting.
How could his body be like this? What kind of curse did Wu Weiwei cast on him?
He must figure this out.
Lu Hanting arrived at Biyunting.
But Wanqiu said that Wu Weiwei had been frightened and had just been coaxed to sleep by them.
He paused.
Thinking that Wei'er almost fell off her horse today, if he were to question her now, it would seem that he was too heartless.
Never mind, I'll ask again another day!
After the prince left, Wanqiu quietly went into the room.
I noticed that their aunt was holding a book and reading it with great interest.
"he's gone?"
"Yes, the Crown Prince has left."
Wu Weiwei frowned as she listened to Wanqiu's description of Lu Hanting's condition earlier.
This doesn't seem like someone who discovered the real culprit and came to comfort her. Could it be that the female lead didn't cause her to fall off the horse?
The next day.
When Wu Weiwei stepped out the door, she was surprised to find two carriages parked at the main gate.
The Crown Prince wasn't riding a horse?
Does he think he'll take a horse-drawn carriage?
Just then, the curtain of one of the carriages was lifted, and a delicate face peeked out.
He Yuyan, what is she doing in the carriage?
"Aunt Wu, please get in the carriage! The young master is already waiting ahead."
Seeing Wu Weiwei arrive late, He Yuyan felt somewhat displeased.
What an air of superiority! Making me and the prince wait for her.
The prince, riding a tall horse ahead, frowned when he saw Wu Weiwei.
“Mr. Wu, you…”
"Hurry up and get on the bus! We're about to depart."
Wu Weiwei glanced at the young master and saw that he had a dark face and seemed to be in a bad mood.
how?
He got impatient just because it was only a quarter of an hour longer.
Wu Weiwei lifted her skirt and got into the carriage, too lazy to look at his dark face.
It's his business if he's unhappy; as long as I'm in a good mood, that's all that matters.
The team headed towards Qingshan, a suburb of Beijing.
Wu Weiwei closed her eyes to catch up on sleep along the way, sometimes reading books, and sometimes playing chess with herself to pass the time.
After a two-hour trek, the group finally arrived at the Qingshan Hunting Grounds.
There are many people here today.
Not only the ministers of the court, but I heard that many scions of prominent families in the capital have also come.
Most of the officials here are accompanied by their wives.
It is extremely rare for someone like Lu Hanting to bring only two concubines.
Wu Weiwei had already guessed He Yuyan's purpose in coming.
It's nothing more than getting to know the imperial concubines and befriending noble ladies, all to build momentum for the Wei Garden she's now taking over.
Then there's the mess I left her with.
Wu Weiwei knew that the female lead valued her reputation, so she deliberately kept something in reserve when transferring Wei Garden.
She remembered asking her back then if she wanted to leave anything for her.
But what did the female lead say back then?
Aside from the plaque bestowed by the emperor, he wanted nothing else.
The beautician took it away, the female doctor took it away, and they packed up all the beauty products and secret formulas to take with them.
If He Yuyan hadn't brought it up herself later, Wu Weiwei probably would have taken all these wealthy clients who had opened cards with her as well.
However, looking back now, the benefits of keeping these noble ladies around have become apparent.
snort!
How could her Wei Garden be so easily taken over?
Want to make money by taking over without paying a price? Dream on!
